How would exception stack traces be handled? That's an important consideration because a stack trace is the first thing people ask for when someone has a problem. :-) I like the idea of one line per entry, but stack traces don't seem to fit into that format. If you collapse a stack trace onto one line, it's a lot harder to read. If you keep the multi-line format for stack traces, you keep the same problem with log analysis practices that work on a line oriented basis. -- Len --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
