Ragini Gawande commented on LOG4J2-3419:
----------------------------------------
I did some debugging here and following is my finding
log4j-1.2-api/src/main/java/org/apache/log4j/helpers/OptionConverter.java
{noformat}
157 public static Level toLevel(String value, Level defaultValue) {
158 if (value == null) {
159 return defaultValue;
160 }
161
162 value = value.trim();
163
164 int hashIndex = value.indexOf('#');
165 if (hashIndex == -1) {
166 if ("NULL".equalsIgnoreCase(value)) {
167 return null;
168 }
169 // no class name specified : use standard Level class
170 return Level.toLevel(value, defaultValue);
171 }{noformat}
here its using Level.toLevel(value, defaultValue) of org.apache.log4j.Level
instead of org.apache.logging.log4j.Level.toLevel
as we have defined new custom levels in
org.apache.logging.log4j.Level.forName() its unable to return the correct level
from org.apache.log4j.Level and instead of actual level it returns defaultValue
which is DEBUG.
Can you please verify if the findings are correct? if yes then please suggest a
way to define custom logging level for org.apache.log4j.Level
