Description

Syslog (i.e RFC5424Layout) does not work with parametrized messages. If I do something like this:

logger.info("Hello {}", "World");

I get this at the syslog server:

Oct 16 18:24:33 10.0.0.3 myApp Hello {}

This is the config file I'm using:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration>
  <Appenders>
    <Console name="STDOUT" target="SYSTEM_OUT">
      <PatternLayout pattern="%d{ISO8601}: %-5p [%t-%c{2}] - %m%n"/>
    </Console>
    <Syslog name="syslog" format="RFC5424" host="10.0.0.1" port="514" protocol="TCP" appName="myApp" facility="LOCAL0" newLine="true" includeMDC="true" id="App" reconnectionDelay="1000"/>
  </Appenders>
  <Loggers>
    <Root level="debug">
      <AppenderRef ref="STDOUT"/>
      <AppenderRef ref="syslog"/>
    </Root>
  </Loggers>
</Configuration>

The log to stdout is ok though.

Attached you find my patch for this bug.
