Remko Popma updated LOG4J2-749:
-------------------------------

    Description: 
Scott Harrington correctly pointed out the following (from comments on 
LOG4J2-670):

You're going to get complaints from more folks about changing this 
long-standing format, which happens to be the default if nothing is specified 
after the '%d'.
What I mean is, a lot of people have been getting the space separator, and they 
are not explicitly asking for ISO8601, and now they're going to start getting a 
'T' separator.
Presence/absence of a space will affect anyone who slices up their log files 
using awk or cut with whitespace delimiters.

I suggest you introduce a new pattern named 'DEFAULT' (and which gets used by 
default):
{code}
%d{ISO8601} = yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss,SSS
%d{ISO8601_BASIC} = yyyyMMdd'T'HHmmss,SSS
%d = %d{DEFAULT} = yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,SSS
{code}


> Retain the default date pattern after fixing ISO8601_PATTERN
