Class ExceptionFormatter

java.lang.Object

com.logentries.logback.ExceptionFormatter

public class ExceptionFormatter
extends java.lang.Object

Formatter to generate Logentries-compatible stack traces.

The Logentries TCP token input is delimited by a traditional newline '\n' char, so multiline events like stack traces should use the unicode line separator.

This class simplifies the coercion of logged exceptions into events that can be easily viewed and searched through Logentries.
