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 > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-86 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-86 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: API > Reporter: Ivan Anev > Fix For: 2.0-beta1 > > > 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.
