Just to clarify, I'm not sure how your properties file can be getting huge
if you have only defined:
log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, daily
log4j.appender.daily=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
Is it just getting huge because you added all the additivity flags?
As for setting additivity
As for setting additivity globally, you can specify additivity on the
rootLogger (that additivity setting is then inherited by all loggers
defined under it). I.E.,
log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, daily
log4j.additivity.rootLogger=false
log4j.appender.daily=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
Are you actually using a different appender for each class in your
application?!?!?
No, it was the same appender. I'll have to spend more time reading the
manual... my .properties file was pieced together from what I could figure
out and examples I found. Thanks!
