[jira] [Comment Edited] (LOG4J2-696) RegexFilter does not match multiline log messages

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-696?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14053841#comment-14053841 ]

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

I committed a version that allows a String[] of Pattern compile option names to be passed in, which match the name of any int defined on the Pattern class. This should be future/past proof to allow you to use whatever is defined on your Java version.

This is available in trunk.

> RegexFilter is constructed with a pattern, but pattern does not support multiline matches, so impossible for the filter to ever match a multiline msg.
> Should maybe provide a multline="x attribute whichi should default to true and result in the patter being compiled as such:
> Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(".*line.*", Pattern.DOTALL);
> See attached UnitTest illustrating failure
