question on negate option for multiline and filter codecs #283

Closed PMDubuc closed 8 years ago

PMDubuc commented 8 years ago

I notice that the negate option has been removed in favor of negation in the pattern. I can't determine what version it was removed in and whether it should still work in the 1.8.2 version I am using. I have many config files that use the negate option instead of negation in the pattern. Do I need to modify them all?

Thanks,

Hello

It hasn't been removed yet. But it will be removed in v2.0 and placed in the pattern, and you'll be able to specify multiple patterns too and multiple codecs.

1.x branch is 1.8.2 still and I'm releasing a minor fix release soon. 2.0 is in beta and can be tested but not yet stable configuration or functionality wise as I'm still working on it.

Thank you. So will it work both ways in 1.8.2? I would like to start using the new way if so.

driskell commented 8 years ago

No it will stay same in 1.8.2 and the following release and throughout 1.x if there's further releases as I don't want to break any configurations people have.

2.0 is where I'm breaking them :-) though for the better I hope!
