We have hierarchical logging in our applications.
But, this requirement is to have the logs grouped based on a custom
level.
For a typical configuration transaction, the logger can record messages
from various hierarchies. We are not guaranteed of the sequence of
messages in this whole transaction. We are pretty much getting all the
messages, but, they ended up mixing with other trace statements.
For example, if we have a new custom log level, can we use that in
<logger> configuration like this?
<logger name="com.logging.test">
<!-- Logging level (i.e. WARN) for this logger: -->
<level value="CONFIG" />
<!-- File appender for this logger: -->
<appender-ref ref="fileAppender" />
</logger>

Have you considered having separate logging hierarchies instead? That
is often a better solution.
