I too in need of such functionality.. Here is a work around,
I am using DailyRollingFileAdapter, which I set from log4j.xml file. If I change to ConsoleAppender, I guess it will not generate log files as the output is diverted to console. Hope this will give a clue to you..

It is possible to filter at the appender level, but appenders are attached to loggers and in your case they're the same name (because you're using the class name, which is identical of course); thus, this won't help. I'm thinking the answer is no, you cannot enable/disable the two calls listed below in your code. However, Log4j is extremely flexible. I encourage you to state at a higher level what you're trying to achieve, and I'll almost guarantee someone will propose a solution meeting your needs. Mike PS As an idea, you could prepend different values to "MyClass.class.getName()" - this would make the hierarchies different from the top. However, I suspect folks would recommend against this. -----Original Message----- From: Andreas Bröker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 29, 2003 2:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: activate/ deactivate Logger with configuration file Hello, i hope this is now the right group. I want to solve the following problem. The thing i need is a different logger control. Now i use two logger to generate logging informations. My class looks like: ... Logger loggerOne = (Logger)getLogger(MyClass.class.getName()); Logger loggerTwo = (Logger)getLogger(MyClass.class.getName()); ... loggerOne.info("message"); loggerTwo.info("another message); ... My, hopefully simple questions, is the folowing: Is it possible to activate, or deactivate respectively, one of my loggers using the log4j configuration file. Thanks for any assistance in advance.
