Qualified host name should use right based precision instead of left
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: LOGMGR-206
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/LOGMGR-206
Project: JBoss Log Manager
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: James Perkins
Assignee: James Perkins
Priority: Major
Fix For: 2.1.5.Final
Currently if precision is used to remove segments from a qualified host name the names
are removed from left to right as they are with the category or class name. However host
names are generally reversed and should be truncated from right to left. For example given
the host name {{logmanager.jboss.org}} and the pattern {{%H\{1\}}} the resulting host name
should be {{logmanager}} not {{org}}.
This does in a sense break compatibility however it feels it was a bug that it even
trimmed from the left. If desired there is a workaround too with a pattern like {{%.-3H}}
if you wanted the {{org}} part of the host name.
