This:
<Logger name="HelloWorld" level="ALL">
is only going to match:
static Logger log = LogManager.getLogger(HelloWorld.class.getName());
if the class in unpackaged, which it looks it is based on this paste but I
want to double check that you did not omit anything from the example.
Are you using the latest version (2.3)?.
I just added this test the other day to Git master:
org.apache.logging.log4j.core.CustomLevelsTest
And it shows that we can configure custom levels from a file and see them
in code.
So I am puzzled here.
You could try the latest from Git master as well but I do not recall any
fixes in this area.
I wonder if the Appenders are processed by the configuration _before_ the
custom levels...
