             Summary: 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


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.
