Hi Marco, sorry, i did not read Yoav's reply before I submitted mine. for some unexplainable reason Yoav's mail reached my mailbox only after I sent my reply. Since I never use getAllAppenders() before, i looked into the java doc files. According to that getAllAppenders() returns all appender for the Category, for which it is called. It does not say anything about sub categories (or category hierarchie). That is why I suggested a way that makes sure, you get all loggers that are currently available ( LogManager.getCurrentLoggers() ) . If getRootLogger().getAllAppenders() work, I would use that. It is much more simple to use.

What is the advantage to using Logger.getRootLogger().getAllAppenders() as in the example from Yoav? Wouln't I get all loggers in this case, too? > However I would do it the other way around.

That would be too much in my case. I do not need this. It now works very well. Thanks to you both.
