> Faced a probable bug (at least, did not find any mention about such issue at manual/google/other bugs in category).
> Brief logging configuration description:
> I have a property defined in my logback configuration. 
> There is a property with log file location defined:
> <property name="LOG_HOME" value="/tmp/aicore" />
> Also, I have ConsoleAppender and two RollingFileAppender appenders, attached to root logger.  RollingFileAppender configuration contains LOG_HOME variable in path and substitution is done without any issues, log file is created and updated.
> But when I add SiftingAppender (log files are created on per-threadId basis), that contains FileAppender in it's sift section, variable value is not substituted.
> Here is the logback log fragment, generated using OnConsoleStatusListener:
> 22:11:27,396 |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.core.joran.action.AppenderAction - About to instantiate appender of type [ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender]
> 22:11:27,396 |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.core.joran.action.AppenderAction - Naming appender as [FILE-server]
> 22:11:27,398 |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.core.joran.action.NestedComplexPropertyIA - Assuming default type [ch.qos.logback.classic.encoder.PatternLayoutEncoder] for [encoder] property
> 22:11:27,400 |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender[FILE-server] - File property is set to [LOG_HOME_IS_UNDEFINED/thread-server.log]
> Note the "LOG_HOME_IS_UNDEFINED/thread-server.log" value. As a result, no any sift log file is created in expected location. When I substitute ${LOG_HOME} value manually, everything works well. 
> Below is my SiftingAppender config:
> 	<appender name="SIFT" class="ch.qos.logback.classic.sift.SiftingAppender">
> 		<discriminator class="ch.qos.logback.classic.sift.MDCBasedDiscriminator">
> 			<key>threadId</key>
> 			<defaultValue>unclassified</defaultValue>
> 		</discriminator>
> 		<sift>
> 			<appender name="FILE-${threadId}" class="ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender">
> 		        <file>${LOG_HOME}/thread-${threadId}.log</file>
> 		        <append>false</append>
> 		       <encoder>
> 		          <pattern>%d [%thread] %level %mdc %logger{35} - %msg%n</pattern>
> 		        </encoder>
>       		      </appender>
> 		</sift>
> 	</appender>
> Sorry if bug report is not formed perfectly, I have not much expertise yet :)
