(I should have a new one soonish :-) ) if there is something bad please do blast it into smitherings :-) I pretty much think in xml and objects and .properties files just make me have nightmares. :-) the problem that I had in pre 1.1b (I have not gotten to testing in 1.1b yet.) is this: <!DOCTYPE configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd"> <configuration> <appender name="defaultThreadLogger" class="org.apache.log4j.FileAppender"> <param name="File" value="System.out" /> <param name="Append" value="true" /> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="ConversionPattern" value="[%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS}]# [ %-5p] userid: %t %x %m \n" /> </layout> </appender> <!-- this is of the entire project that everyone else inherits off of --> <root> <priority value ="error" /> <appender-ref ref="defaultThreadLogger" /> </root> <!-- start of the robots.util PACKAGE --> <category name="foo.bar.robots.util"> <priority value="info" /> <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultThreadLogger" /> --> </category> <!-- end of the robots.util PACKAGE --> </configuration> If you uncomment <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultThreadLogger" /> --> then when foo.bar.robots.util fires you will get the appender "firing" 2x. it seems that the xml parser inserts the appender-ref into the list of appenders without checking to see if that appender is already inserted. (I can't recall if I submitted this as a bug already. I know I wanted to. but life just blurs and you think you did something but instead it was a cafeine induced haze.) msew ------- see below for the .xml file example --------- <!-- <!DOCTYPE configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd"> --> <!DOCTYPE configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd"> <configuration> <appender name="defaultThreadLogger" class="org.apache.log4j.FileAppender"> <param name="File" value="System.out" /> <param name="Append" value="true" /> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="ConversionPattern" value="[%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS}]# [ %-5p] userid: %t %x %m \n" /> </layout> </appender> <!-- this is of the entire project that everyone else inherits off of --> <root> <priority value ="error" /> <appender-ref ref="defaultThreadLogger" /> </root> <!-- start of the robots.util PACKAGE --> <category name="foo.bar.robots.util"> <priority value="info" /> <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultThreadLogger" /> --> </category> <!-- end of the robots.util PACKAGE --> <!-- start of the robots.client PACKAGE --> <category name="foo.bar.client"> <priority value="info" /> <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultNetworkLogger" /> --> </category> <!-- start of the BootStrap --> <category name="foo.bar.client.BootStrap"> <priority value="info" /> <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultNetworkLogger" /> --> </category> <!-- end of the BootStrap --> <!-- start of the BotThreadImpl --> <category name="foo.bar.client.BotThreadImpl"> <priority value="info" /> <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultNetworkLogger" /> --> </category> <!-- end of the BotThreadImpl --> <!-- end of the robots.client PACKAGE --> <!-- start of the robots.common.thread PACKAGE --> <category name="foo.bar.common.thread"> <priority value="warn" /> <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultThreadLogger" /> --> </category> <!-- start of the PingMessageThreadImpl --> <category name="foo.bar.common.thread.PingMessageThreadImpl"> <priority value="debug" /> <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultThreadLogger" /> --> </category> <!-- end of the PingMessageThreadImpl --> <!-- start of the PingMessageThreadLobbyImpl --> <category name="foo.bar.common.thread.PingMessageThreadLobbyImpl"> <priority value="warn" /> <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultThreadLogger" /> --> </category> <!-- end of the PingMessageThreadLobbyImpl --> <!-- end of the robots.common.thread PACKAGE --> <!-- start of the robots.common.network PACKAGE --> <category name="foo.bar.common.network"> <priority value="debug" /> <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultNetworkLogger" /> --> </category> <!-- start of the RobotNetworkConnectionLobbyImpl --> <category name="foo.bar.common.network.RobotNetworkConnectionLobbyImpl"> <priority value="debug" /> <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultNetworkLogger" /> --> </category> <!-- end of the RobotNetworkConnectionLobbyImpl --> <!-- start of the RobotNetworkConnectionLobbyImpl --> <category name="foo.bar.common.network.RobotNetworkConnectionGameServerImpl"> <priority value="debug" /> <!-- <appender-ref ref="defaultNetworkLogger" /> --> </category> <!-- end of the RobotNetworkConnectionLobbyImpl --> <!-- end of the robots.common.network PACKAGE --> </configuration> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
