    • toImmutable

      public LogEvent toImmutable()
      Subclasses should implement this method to provide an immutable version.
      Specified by:
      toImmutable in interface LogEvent

    • getContextData

      public ReadOnlyStringMap getContextData()
      Description copied from interface: LogEvent
      Returns the ReadOnlyStringMap object holding context data key-value pairs.

      Context data (also known as Mapped Diagnostic Context or MDC) is data that is set by the application to be included in all subsequent log events. The default source for context data is the ThreadContext (and properties configured on the Logger that logged the event), but users can configure a custom ContextDataInjector to inject key-value pairs from any arbitrary source.

      Specified by:
      getContextData in interface LogEvent
      Returns:
      the ReadOnlyStringMap object holding context data key-value pairs

    • isEndOfBatch

      public boolean isEndOfBatch()
      Description copied from interface: LogEvent
      Returns true if this event is the last one in a batch, false otherwise. Used by asynchronous Loggers and Appenders to signal to buffered downstream components when to flush to disk, as a more efficient alternative to the immediateFlush=true configuration.
      Specified by:
      isEndOfBatch in interface LogEvent
      Returns:
      whether this event is the last one in a batch.

    • isIncludeLocation

      public boolean isIncludeLocation()
      Description copied from interface: LogEvent

      Specified by:
      isIncludeLocation in interface LogEvent
      Returns:
      true if the source of the logging request is required downstream, false otherwise.
      See Also:

    • setEndOfBatch

      public void setEndOfBatch(boolean endOfBatch)
      Description copied from interface: LogEvent
      Sets whether this event is the last one in a batch. Used by asynchronous Loggers and Appenders to signal to buffered downstream components when to flush to disk, as a more efficient alternative to the immediateFlush=true configuration.

      setEndOfBatch in interface LogEvent
      Parameters:
      endOfBatch - true if this event is the last one in a batch, false otherwise.

    • setIncludeLocation

      public void setIncludeLocation(boolean locationRequired)
      Description copied from interface: LogEvent
      Sets whether the source of the logging request is required downstream. Asynchronous Loggers and Appenders use this flag to determine whether to take a StackTrace snapshot or not before handing off this event to another thread.
      Specified by:
      setIncludeLocation in interface LogEvent
      Parameters:

      Description copied from interface: LogEvent
      Returns the value of the running Java Virtual Machine's high-resolution time source when this event was created, or a dummy value if it is known that this value will not be used downstream.
      Specified by:
      getNanoTime in interface LogEvent
      Returns:
      The value of the running Java Virtual Machine's high-resolution time source when this event was created.
