             Summary: Builder like pattern to add values to MapMessage
                 Key: LOG4J2-1161
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1161
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: API
    Affects Versions: 2.4.1
            Reporter: Mikael Ståldal
            Priority: Minor


It would be nice to have a builder like pattern to add values to {{MapMessage}} and its subclass {{StructuredDataMessage}}, so you can do 

{code}
        EventLogger.logEvent(
            new StructuredDataMessage(confirm, null, "transfer")
                .withValue("toAccount", toAccount)
                .withValue("fromAccount", fromAccount)
                .withValue("amount", amount)
        );
{code}

instead of

{code}
        StructuredDataMessage msg = new StructuredDataMessage(confirm, null, "transfer");
        msg.put("toAccount", toAccount);
        msg.put("fromAccount", fromAccount);
        msg.put("amount", amount);
        EventLogger.logEvent(msg);
{code}
