[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFCORE-2011) Inconsistency of formatter and named-formatter in console logging handler

[Brian Stansberry (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-2011?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13325238#comment-13325238 ] 

Brian Stansberry commented on WFCORE-2011:
------------------------------------------

I don't think this is a bug, at least not in terms of CLI use. I haven't thought about how the console presents the data.

This is the output of read-resource when you don't ask the server to give you default values for undefined attributes:

{code}
[standalone at embedded console-handler=CONSOLE] :read-resource(include-defaults=false)
{
    "outcome" => "success",
    "result" => {
        "autoflush" => undefined,
        "enabled" => undefined,
        "encoding" => undefined,
        "filter" => undefined,
        "filter-spec" => undefined,
        "formatter" => undefined,
        "level" => "INFO",
        "name" => "CONSOLE",
        "named-formatter" => "COLOR-PATTERN",
        "target" => undefined
    }
}
{code}

When you do a simple read-resource you get the default values. That's general server-wide behavior and isn't going to be modified for this particular case.

The 'formatter' and 'named-formatter' attributes are marked as alternatives to each other, so the attribute descriptions make clear that the user can only define one or the other. The one that is defined is the one that takes effect.

> In logging subsystem the default CONSOLE console-handler is defined with COLOR-PATTERN named-formatter.
> And the COLOR-PATTERN named-formatter is defined with: {noformat}"%K{level}%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} %-5p [%c] (%t) %s%e%n"{noformat}
> It is working as it is defined with colors in a console.

>     </formatter>
> </subsystem>

> {code}
> However there is a inconsistency in the CLI and WildFly admin console views.
> In the CLI, CONSOLE formatter is: {noformat}"%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} %-5p [%c] (%t) %s%e%n"{noformat} It is wrong and different with the working logging format in a console.
