RE: [SCL-4] Is it possible to configure different log levels for the same appender based on what logger it is coming from?
One possibility I see: Write an own Filter which is attached to the root logger's Apender and filter out the messages which you do not want.

Hello all, I have a question regarding how I might configure Log4J to support the following scenario: The root logger has an appender (let's call this Appender Z) with a threshold of INFO. There is some important info messages that get logged to that root logger, so we can't set the threshold any higher... Logger A has some verbose info logging that we wish to log to a separate appender (Appender Y). We want Logger A's warn and error messages to appear in the root logger, but not Logger A's info messages. It is totally fine for Logger A's warn and error messages to appear in Appender Y. If I set additivity to false on Logger A, none of its warn or error messages will make it to Appender Z. If I leave additivity as true, all of its info messages will appear in Appender Z, which is not what we want. Is there something I'm missing here? Thanks!

Hello Adam, Do you have access to the source code where logger A is defined and used? -- Ceki - http://logback.qos.ch/ On 20/10/2010 11:23 PM, Adam Creeger wrote: Hello all, I have a question regarding how I might configure Log4J to support the following scenario: The root logger has an appender (let's call this Appender Z) with a threshold of INFO.

Hi Ceki, Thanks for responding so quickly! Yes, we do have access to the source code... (But we'd rather address this via configuration than code changes) Adam On 20 October 2010 14:39, Ceki Gülcü c...@qos.ch wrote: Hello Adam, Do you have access to the source code where logger A is defined and used? -- Ceki - http://logback.qos.ch/ On 20/10/2010 11:23 PM, Adam Creeger wrote: Hello all, I have a question regarding how I might configure Log4J to support the following scenario: The root logger has an appender (let's call this Appender Z) with a threshold of INFO.
