Simple GROK pattern for JAVA

Question

Its weird that GROK pattern is not parsing the string :

org.dozer.config.GlobalSettings.loadGlobalSettings

%{JAVACLASS:class}\.%{JAVAMETHOD:method}

I see compile error. Please suggest.

Answer 1

Seems that JAVAMETHOD is not found, I didn't have time to check if was removed or what's going on with it, but here you can see how it is done

So a quick work around is to create your own custom pattern

JAVAMETHOD (?:(<(?:cl)?init>)|[a-zA-Z$_][a-zA-Z$_0-9]*)

After that this works
