Thanks for your reply ... I found the problem ... my priorities where defined the other way around. I mean the highest priority the lowest int_value they had ... so I had to overwrite the isGreaterOrEqual() method of the Priority class. But now I have another problem (... the usual life of a programmer :)) ...), it works fine with the property file "log4j.category.Cat=ALERT#MyProperty, A1" but not with my xml file "<priority class="MyPriority" value="alert"/>" . When I turn de debug option at the command line -Dlog4j.debug then I can see that the xml file is correctly being parsed but he set category to DEBUG default value ....??? Is there something wrong with my xml synthax? Can I assign one of my priorities to the root category?
