[jira] [Commented] (LOG4J2-1013) Log4j2 Main Arguments Lookup by name doesn't work

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1013?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16395529#comment-16395529 ]

---------------------------------------

Hi. I would like to work on this.

Just one thing. I've been looking at the code and I still don't understand why there is a DEFAULT_VALUE_DELIMITER. I can not find in the documentation anything about a default value for properties. For example, if I run {{org.apache.logging.log4j.core.lookup.MainInputArgumentsLookupTest}} with the command line {{--file foo.txt}} and the following pattern layout:
{quote}%d [%t] [${main:1}][${main:-1}][${main:--file}][${main:v:-bar}] %-5level: %msg%n%throwable
{quote}
The output is:
{quote}2018-03-12 18:04:00,962 [main] [foo.txt][1][-file][bar] ERROR: this is an error message
{quote}
[bar] is ok because I didn't provide a value in the command line. However I can not find a similar example in the documentation.

> Accessing Main Arguments by using index based look up works : $\{main:0}
> Accessing Main Arguments by using name based look up doesn't work : $\{main:--file}
> When trying to access by name it doesn't retrieve the argument but retrieves "-file".
