Yeah, the more I think about it the more I see the issue. Ouch.
Ok, since in each class you like have something like this:
public static final Logger LOG = Logger.getLogger(MyClass.class);
Could you do something like this? (Cumbersome still, but hey, if you
want Ultimate Configuration it comes with Ultimate complexity usually
public static final DBLogger = Logger.getLogger("DB." +
MyClass.class.getName() );
public static final TimerLogger= Logger.getLogger("Trace." +
MyClass.class.getName());
...
That way you will have a Logger for every class and every aspect. You
can then turn _ALL_ Trace logging by setting the "DB" Logger to whatever
level, then all the class names inherit from it. You can then also set
"DB" to INFO, but override with "DB.com.mycompany.MyClass=DEBUG".
Would that help?
cheers,
Paul
