Hi,
Here is the config file - It does not work
# Root logger set to ALL using the A1 appender defined above.
log4j.rootLogger=ALL, A1, C1
log4j.debug=false
# File appender A1.
log4j.appender.A1=RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.A1.FileName=service.log
log4j.appender.A1.MaxFileSize=100MB
log4j.appender.A1.MaxBackupIndex=20
log4j.appender.A1.threshold=INFO
log4j.appender.A1.layout=PatternLayout
log4j.appender.A1.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ISO8601} [%t] %-5p %c
{2} %l - %m%n
# Console appender C1 (WARN and above).
log4j.appender.C1=ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.C1.threshold=WARN
log4j.appender.C1.layout=PatternLayout
log4j.appender.C1.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ISO8601} [%t] %p %c -
%m%n
Everything gets printed to the console.
Thanks,

Both log4j and log4cxx should support setting thresholds on
appenders. appenderskeleton.cpp does implement a setThreshold method
and also setting the threshold using the setOption method which is
should be enough to allow the configurators to work. Did you try a
configuration file that included setting the threshold on an appender
and it did not work on log4cxx? If so, could you share your
configuration file?
Please send follow up messages to the list and not to the first
person who responds or to the developers. Keeping discussions on the
list allows others to contribute and makes sure that all project
decisions are visible and archived.
I've written a unit test to check that the appender thresholds can be
set by property configuration and that they are effective in
suppressing messages below the threshold. However, the test passes
just fine. I also tried your log4j.properties file with a test
application and everything works as expected. Only messages of WARN
or higher are displayed on the console.
Please try the following:
Make sure that you are using the current SVN HEAD. No support can be
offered for log4cxx 0.9.7.
Change log4j.debug=false to log4j.debug=true and see if you get any
diagnostics. If you don't see any differences, maybe you are getting
your configuration from a different file.
If you still have problems, please provide additional details on bug
report LOGCXX-207 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGCXX-207),
specifically debug output from setting log4j.debug, operating system
and compiler used and any other issues. Please also check if the
problem occurs in a trivial example (for example, src/examples/cpp/
trivial.cpp with the BasicConfigurator line removed) since there is
the possibility that a complex app is modifying the configuration.
