For the application I am working on, I receive log messages from multiple machines. It would be handy to include a new PatternLayout character sequence %h (or %H or %a) to include the hostname that generated the trap. %h{1} would return the hostname without the domain.
Also, being able to reference system properties in the PatternLayout would be handy, such as %j{java.version} or %j{instance.id} in my case. Being able to reference system properties in general (for turning off appenders) seems like a good idea. I could easily add this feature myself to a private branch, but I figure it's probably something better to be made available to all. I can write the patch, if that's easier. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
