[erlang-questions] R21 logger mangles map messages

[Mark Geib]

Yes that removed the extra commas. Of course now the log messages are multi-line.

So to get a single line message for maps, without the commas, is the only approach to format the message with something like
io_lib:print(MyBigMap,1,8192,-1) and then log the string?

These log messages are being consumed by splunk, so the commas are causing problems, and the messages need to be single line.

Thanks,
Mark.

If single_line is true (default), then the formatted string is converted to a single line by replacing all newlines with ", " (comma, space). Could you please try to set single_line to false and let me see the output? The property can be set as follows (if the printout comes from the default handler):
