                 Key: LBCLASSIC-306
                 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-306
             Project: logback-classic
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Michael Pilquist
            Assignee: Logback dev list


When mixing periods and dollar signs in a logger name, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown from LoggerFactory.getLogger:

scala> org.slf4j.LoggerFactory.getLogger("a.b$c.d")
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: For logger [a] child name [a.b$c passed as parameter, may not include '.' after index2
	at ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger.createChildByName(Logger.java:386)
	at ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext.getLogger(LoggerContext.java:152)
	at ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext.getLogger(LoggerContext.java:48)
	at org.slf4j.LoggerFactory.getLogger(LoggerFactory.java:253)

Note that the following works:
scala> org.slf4j.LoggerFactory.getLogger("a$b.c")
res0: org.slf4j.Logger = Logger[a$b.c]
