You can also define the log level in the Appender , using the following <filter class="org.apache.log4j.varia.LevelRangeFilter"> <param name="LevelMin" value="ERROR" /> </filter>
(useful when trying to define 2 different loggers with different log level for the same package/class) --Katy -----Original Message----- From: Robert Pepersack [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 06, 2008 4:28 PM To: Log4J Users List Subject: Re: Setting logging levels You attach your logging level to your logger. You can specify your log4j configuration properties in file by using PropertyConfigurator.configure(String configFilename). You can also configure log4j by using some of the other methods of PropertyConfigurator. For example, you can create a java.util.Properties object and pass it into PropertyConfigurator.configure(Properties properties). log4j automatically appends or drops the logging request based on the level you attach to your logger. For example, if you set your logging level to INFO, then logger.info("Your message"); would append your message. But, if you set the level to ERROR, then logger.info("Your message"); would be dropped (not appended). >>> lp_1431 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 05/06/2008 9:02 AM >>> I m new to log4j. Is the logging level put in the properties file is a default logging level that is set? How is that logging level accessed when we write... logger.info("Info message"); in the main program. Please let me know about this.
