Hi Tim,
The Logger class has a way of checking the level first.
First put this in your instance variables:
private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("my.package.MyClass");
private final boolean debug = logger.isDebugEnabled();
Then put this in your method:
if (this.debug)
{
logger.debug(new String("test"));
}
Hope this helps.

Hi,
I am writing a Log Utility to check the log level first before creating a
string object. For example, if my log level is INFO, and I call:
log.debug(new String("test"));
It will still instantiate the String object even thought it doesn't log
anything.
So I would like to write an Utility to check the level first, if the log level
is lower, then I don't have to instantiate the object and just skip it.
Anybody knows what is the easy way to do that?
Thanks,
