Paul D Johe commented on LOG4J2-256:
------------------------------------
I disagree that the best solution would be to add support for the
"LoggerFields" to the SyslogLayout (BSD format). Doing so would make the
relatively simple BSD format more complicated than needed.
The RFC5424 layout and BSD layout (SyslogLayout) are two very different layouts
and should not be lumped too much (see LOG4J2-969).
If a "pattern" @PluginAttribute was added in to SyslogAppender, the attribute
can only apply for the BSD format...

> It would be nice to be able to appy custom format to a message sent using
> SyslogLayout, user will be able to use PatternLayout/XMLLayout, etc... and
> format it as a syslog message (add syslog header ).
> so the usage would be :
> <SyslogWrapLayout facility="lpr">
> <PatternLayout pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%t] %marker.%-5level
> %logger{2.} - %msg"/>
> </SyslogWrapLayout>
