Setting logging levels

2008-05-06 Thread lp_1431

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. THANKS

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).

You can also define the log level in the Appender , using the following




(useful when trying to define 2 different loggers with different log level for 
the same package/class)

RE: - Setting logging levels

2008-05-06 Thread Bender Heri
If the string which you supply to logger.info() must first be constructed 
(normally a expensive operation which you dont want to do if info is not 
enabled) you can avoid this by:

if ( logger.isInfoEnabled() )
{
logger.info( prepareString( args ) );
}

Without this surrounding if the string would be constructed anyway only in 
order that the log frameworks throws it away if the desired level is not 
enabled.

The isXXXEnabled() exists for each level.

Please let me know what is the default logging level, if we do not set the

How can I combine using DailyRollingFileAppender with some sort of limit on file size?

2008-05-06 Thread Katy Podolner

Since the MaxFileSize and MaxBackupIndex aren't inherited from the 
RollingFileAppender I can't use those when configuring appender of class 
DailyRollingFileAppender  in my log4j.xml However I'd like to prevent a 
situation where the error logs take up a non limited amount of disk space.

I've searched the mailing list and couldn't find any suggestions.

Will appreciate your help,
Thanks

The org.apache.log4j.rolling.RollingFileAppender in the extras  
companion (http://logging.apache.org/companions/extras) supports  
replaceable triggering (when to rollover) and rolling (file name  
strategy) policies.  You could provide a variant of  
TimeBasedRollingPolicy that also triggers on file size.

Defaults with the rootlogger

2008-05-06 Thread lp_1431

Are there any defaults set when the rootlogger is called? If there are, what
are they?

Thanks...
