Thanks Mark, This works fine. How can I filter them per MDC in say Lumbermill GUI? Janusz
fyi Point taken, I will raise bug next time - thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Womack [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2002 1:54 PM To: 'Log4J Users List' Subject: RE: MDC layout parameter fyi, I filed a bug against PatternLayout javadoc for not documenting the %X pattern converter. -Mark -----Original Message----- From: Mark Womack Sent: Tuesday, March 26, 2002 5:20 PM To: 'Log4J Users List' Subject: RE: MDC layout parameter Janusz, The answer is in the log4j/helpers/PatternParser.java code (used by PatternLayout.java). %x is for NDC. %X is for MDC. You will probably want to specify the particular MDC key, and that would be like this: %X{<key name>} Try it and see if it works for you. -Mark [Ceki, I think the PatternLayout javadoc needs to be updated to include this new conversion pattern.] -----Original Message----- From: Janusz Dalecki [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, March 26, 2002 4:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: MDC layout parameter Hi, I would like MDC to print my sub-system name (my sub-system is separate app running under jvm). I am using log4j 1.2 beata. I am trying to use MDC because if I understand properly all children threads of the main thread will use the same context value, and that is exactly what I want. I can't get that to work - I am using in my PatternLayout %x flag to do that - is that the reason it does not work. I was trying to look inside a code, but can't find anything.
