added NewLineHandling to RemoteSyslogAppender - fixes #274
Before 3.3.0, newline characters (
\ror\n) were always treated as line breaks.Messages containing newlines were therefore split into multiple syslog entries.
Starting with 3.3.0, newline handling is configurable through the
NewLineHandlingoption.The new default is
Escape.The available modes are:
Escape(default since 3.3.0)Newlines are replaced with the escaped representations
\r→\\rand\n→\\n.The message is sent as a single syslog entry.
Split(default before 3.3.0)The message is split at each newline into multiple syslog entries.
Combined sequences (\r\n) count as a single break.
This matches the behaviour in versions before 3.3.0.
KeepNewlines are preserved as-is in the message content.
Many syslog servers can process entries containing embedded newlines, but server support varies.
