Subject: RE: Can custom appender override the log4j.xml configuration


Hi Aneez,

I initialise the Logger instance as follows:
    Logger customLogger = Logger.getLogger("myCustomLogger");
    / / remove all appenders associated with customLogger
    customLogger.removeAllAppenders();
    // add JDBCAppenderService to customLogger
    customLogger .addAppender(new JDBCAppenderService(ds));  //ds is the
datasource name

How about removing all appenders from the root logger? Or is that not what you want to achieve? Remember that the loggers are hierarchical.

I want customLogger to remained unaffected by the settings in the
log4j.xml
file. So, if the logging level in log4j.xml is set to OFF, I still want
the
JDBC appneder to work i.e log data in the database.

You can programmatically set the logging level of your appender.

Please let me know if there any way to achieve this ?? Or does the
log4j.xml
configuration overrides the settings in the class files ??

If you don't want log4j to avoid the default initialization procedure you can set the log4j.defaultInitOverrride system property to anything other than "false".

Regards,
Michael Erskine.
