Paul Benedict commented on LOG4J2-86:
-------------------------------------

Ivan, this can be solved cleanly by not overloading info(Object) but using a 
new named method. Maybe like logger.stackTrace(Level, Throwable)?
                
> Provide a logging methods with only a Throwable object as parameters

> Provide logging methods with only a Throwable object as a single parameter:
> info(Throwable e)
> error(Throwable e)
> ...
> The throwable objects contain a message themself and a stacktrace. So most of 
> the times its pointless to log additional message. So in order to log them 
> now you have to log an empty message and the throwable object:
> logger.error("", e);
> Which is obviously ugly and pointless when there is no reason not to have 
> method like:
> logger.error(e);
> that should log both the message and the stacktrace.
