Thanks - looks like I had my mins and maxs mixed up - I thought Fatal was the min and Debug was the max, but now I can see it's the other way around. Your help is appreciated.

Here is the source code the relevant method inside LevelRangeFilter, you can see how it works: public int decide(LoggingEvent event) { if(this.levelMin != null) { if (event.getLevel().isGreaterOrEqual(levelMin) == false) { // level of event is less than minimum return Filter.DENY; } } if(this.levelMax != null) { if (event.getLevel().toInt() > levelMax.toInt()) { // level of event is greater than maximum // Alas, there is no Level.isGreater method. and using // a combo of isGreaterOrEqual && !Equal seems worse than // checking the int values of the level objects.. return Filter.DENY; } } if (acceptOnMatch) { // this filter set up to bypass later filters and always return // accept if level in range return Filter.ACCEPT; } else { // event is ok for this filter; allow later filters to have a look.. return Filter.NEUTRAL; } } Hope this helps, Paul On Mon, 2003-09-08 at 08:45, Matt Raible wrote: > Yep - I only want ERROR and FATAL to go to my file appender and all > messages (fatal -> debug) to go to the console. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Paul Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Sunday, September 07, 2003 4:18 PM > To: Log4J Users List > Subject: RE: LevelRangeFilter not working > > > Sorry, I got confused when you said "<=Error" in your original post, > was that a typo, did you mean >=Error? > > Ok, to confirm, you only want ERROR and FATAL to go to your file > appender, and allow all errors to go to the console? > > cheers, > > Paul > > On Mon, 2003-09-08 at 08:12, Matt Raible wrote: > > I believe I have it configured correctly.
