Would be nice if the "visual and informative improvements" also applied to the debug session info

I can change it to pretty-print the session json values (in PHP 5.4+)? ok for you? or are you referring to something else?

[watchfulli-dev]

@test success, applied the patch and indeed better layout now

@mbabker in this PR i did some changes in JLogEntry class so it can save the debug backtrace.
I need to made a PR to the log framework repository too, right?

[mbabker]

Don't bother. The Framework's Log library is deprecated and all but abandoned at this point. We typehint the PSR-3 logging interface in the Framework where packages support logging and the consensus at the time was Monolog is exponentially better so we weren't rewriting our code to support the interface.

[andrepereiradasilva]

ok thanks.

[photodude]

@andrepereiradasilva Yes, something like pretty-print the session json values. Anything would likely look better than the raw JSON values.

@alikon thanks for the testing
"ok Log messages" now?

[alikon]

if we can have a subtotal for each logged category messages (not only for deprecated) should be OK

[andrepereiradasilva]

Joomla core has a LOT of deprecated messages .... 😟

What we can do is making tabs there for priority and with the totals
ex: CRITICAL xx || WARNING xx || INFO xx || DEBUG xx

or by category
ex: Deprecated xx || Databasequery xx || etc xx

I think the deprecated warning should stay alone.

I do agree that we should have a summary subtotal for each logged category in the log section.
