Re: disabling categories (was: channels in Log4j)

I'm wondering if the answer is extending Priority to accomodate
Priority.OFF?

Gotcha. Sorry if I was appering thick :-). From looking at the code, I
couldn't see the expected category.disable or similar method (or am I
wrong?) so I guess the only way to disable the logging to a category would
be to either wrap the use of the category with your own code (e.g. check is
activity before logging) or to remove all the attached appenders. Any
veteran Log4j people out here with a better idea?

 Can you turn off a Category or only set it as high as FATAL and
