Don't worry about the categories inside the logging configuration itself - these are only used to setup logging channels that inside the logging system (and only needed for hard-core sub-system debugging). Normal application level categories can be declared in a deployment configuration (under <targets><target>) which is explained here: http://avalon.apache.org/products/runtime/reference/kernel/overrides/tar get/categories/index.html > > Also, is it possible to output "info" and above to the console, and > "debug" and above to a file? No - not for a single category. But you could use separate logging categories. For example: Public MyWidget( Logger logger ) { m_debugChannel = logger.getChildLogger( "debug" ); m_infoChannel = logger.getChildLogger( "info" ); } This would create two child channels which you could configure top have different targets and different logging priorities. > If so, how? In the runtime/logging/logkit/test project you will find a test case that does something similar to the above. It logs to both file and console as part of the unit test execution. You may get some ideas by looking at the sources. The source is: src\test\org\apache\avalon\logging\logkit\test\ DefaultLoggingManagerTestCase.java The configuration is in test\etc\test\logkit\logging.xml Cheers, Steve. > Thanks! > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Stephen McConnell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: July 25, 2004 23:14 > > To: 'Avalon framework users'; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: RE: Logging configuration > > > > > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: David Leangen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Sent: Sunday, July 25, 2004 15:56 > > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Subject: Logging configuration > > > Importance: High > > > > > > > > > I'd like to configure my components to log to a file. > > > > > > I read this page: > > > > > http://avalon.apache.org/products/runtime/system/logging/api/index.html > > > > > > > > > But it doesn't say WHERE or HOW to do this.
