>
> Currently, PatternLayout calls PatternParser which knows about the various
> PatternConverters, many of which are imbedded in it. This makes it difficult
> for users to add their own Converters.
> In the logging framework I created each converter identified the conversion
> characters it supported. Each PatternConverter was required to supply a
> getKeys() method that returned this list. The equivalent of the PatternLayout
> contained an array of PatternConverters. During initialization each of these
> would be called and the list of keys recorded along with the associated
> converter. To add your own converter all that was necessary was to extend the
> class and add your new keys to the list of recorded keys along with their
> converters. The base PatternLayout would then take care of calling the
> correct converters as necessary.
