## Detailed Description

Implements the formatting of LoggerEvent objects with a pattern.

The `LoggerLayoutPattern` lets the user specify the output format according to conversion patterns similar to the sprintf() function.

The following table explains the characters used in LoggerPattern and all other characters that you can use in your custom pattern:

Conversion character | Meaning
`%c` | Used to output the category of the logging event, i.e. logger name
`%C` | Used to output the class name of the caller issuing the logging request, i.e. logger class name
`%d` | Used to output the date of the logging event using format_date. Option may specify date format, e.g. `"%d{DD.MM.YYYY HH:mm:SS}"`
`%E` | Used to output the environment variable with name given by option, e.g. `"%E{HOME}"`
`%F` | Used to output the file name where the logging request was issued
`%h` | Used to output the hostname where the logging event was generated
`%l` | Used to output location information of the caller which generated the logging event, i.e. `"file:line [function()]"`
`%L` | Used to output the line number from where the logging request was issued, option may specify sprintf() format, e.g. `"%.3d"`
`%m` | Used to output the application supplied message associated with the logging event
`%M` | Used to output the method name where the logging request was issued
`%n` | Outputs the platform dependent line separator character or characters
`%p` | Used to output the priority of the logging event
`%P` | Used to output the PID where the logging event was generated
`%r` | Used to output the number of milliseconds elapsed from the construction of the layout until the creation of the logging event, option may specify sprintf() format, e.g. `"%.3d"`
`%t` | Used to output the thread id that generated the logging event, option may specify sprintf() format, e.g. `"%.3d"`
`%u` | Used to output logging event unique id, option may specify sprintf() format, e.g. `"%.3d"`
`%x` | Used to output exception string using Util::get_exception_string()
`%%` | The literal percent sign. `"%%"` will print a `"%"` sign

For example, the `LoggerLayoutPattern` with the conversion pattern `"%r [%t] %-5p %c - %m%n"` will output something like:

            176 [23] INFO  MyLogger - New record created

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ constructor()

Logger::LoggerLayoutPattern::constructor | ( | string | pattern = `DEFAULT_PATTERN` | ) |

Creates the object.

Parameters

  pattern | the logger layout pattern

## ◆ format()

string Logger::LoggerLayoutPattern::format | ( | LoggerEvent | event | ) |
| virtual

Formats an event record.

Parameters

  event | the event to format

Returns
  a formatted string for the event

Implements Logger::LoggerLayout.

## ◆ resolveField()

*string Logger::LoggerLayoutPattern::resolveField | ( | auto | event,
|  | string | key,
|  | *string | option
| ) |  |
| protected virtual

Returns the value corresponding to a particular key.

Parameters

  event | (LoggerEvent)
  key | the single-character formatting code
  option | optional supporting information for key

Implements Logger::LoggerPattern.
