[jira] [Updated] (LOG4J2-623) Better structure of Thread Context Map in JSONLayout

["Mikael Ståldal (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-623?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Mikael Ståldal updated LOG4J2-623:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
Currently, the Thread Context Map looks like this in JSONLayout:

{code:JavaScript}
 "Properties":[
      {
        "name":"UserName",
        "value":"admin"
      },
      {
        "name":"OrgName",
        "value":"test"
      } 
    ] 
{code:JavaScript}

This does not properly make use of the JSON data format. Since the Thread Context Map is a map, it should be represented as a JSON object. And why name it "mdc" rather than the quite vauge "Properties"?

{code:JavaScript}
  "mdc": {
    "UserName":"admin", 
    "OrgName":"test"
  }
{code:JavaScript}
