Hi, Andreas New a Throwable() will create the full stack trace information in the throwable instance. The log4j parse the stack trace and get the LocationInformation. But it's of no use to the class in the same package with LoocationInfo(or LogEvent)
It's heavy burden to create lots of exceptions, so I do not recommend you use this one if your system are time-critical.

Considering that the LocationInfo class searches the Throwable to obtain the location information when it gets instantiated, I do not understand how it ever gets the location information, because the throwable created by getLocationInfo() is always empty? I must be missing something.... can somebody point out to me what, please.
