Bug 21751 – std.experimental.logger add possibility to pass a throwable to a log

It would be a nice feature to add the possibility to add a Throwable to logs functions and LogEntry. This would add the possibility to enrich the log with Exception information (like the stack trace), as it’s possible to do in languages like Python or java.

Could you please describe, with code, what you would like to see? Thanks.

In java for example I can do ```java try { throw new Exception(); } catch(Exception e) { log.error("This was unexpected", e); } And then in my log, I can have the plain exception object to format it in a particular way. I use this technique to format the log in json and have the stack trace in a separate field of my json log. This allow me to have my log analyzer being able to display the message of the error in the main part and if I expand it, to see the stack trace.

I don't understand what's preventing you from doing this now.

Ok, perfect. I close the ticket then. Since i wrote this ticket, I learned how tobuse the loggers.
