All Implemented Interfaces:

public class ThrowableInformation
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable

ThrowableInformation is log4j's internal representation of throwables. It essentially consists of a string array, called 'rep', where the first element, that is rep[0], represents the string representation of the throwable (i.e. the value you get when you do throwable.toString()) and subsequent elements correspond the stack trace with the top most entry of the stack corresponding to the second entry of the 'rep' array that is rep[1]. Note that ThrowableInformation does not store the throwable it represents.
