Hi,
I want to include the JDBCAppender as one of our appenders so that all error
level messages will be written to a common database. The problem is that the
message content frequently contains a stack trace which is too large for the
database column. What I get right now is a row with the 'message' column
empty/null.
I looked at extending JDBCAppender doAppend method, which would check the
length of the message and truncate it after the first X bytes but the LogEvent
doesn't provide getters so that I could create a different LogEvent with the
truncated message.
What I really want to be able to do is use a format modifier on the message
column, something like %2048m
to get the first 2k bytes for the column.
Any suggestions on other ways to get this implemented?
