You can set the threshold of an entire logger hierarchy to OFF
Example in properties (key=value) format:
log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, CON
log4j.appender.CON=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.CON.layout=org.apache.log4j.SimpleLayout
# Turn all logging OFF for all loggers regardless of the logger.
log4j.threshold=OFF
You can achieve the same in In XML format:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd">
<log4j:configuration threshold="OFF"
xmlns:log4j='http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/'>
<appender name="STDOUT" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.SimpleLayout"/>
</appender>
<root>
<level value="DEBUG" />
<appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
</root>
</log4j:configuration>
The important attribute is [threshold="OFF"]
HTH, Ceki
ps: By the way, this is the wrong forum. Your question should have been
asked on the
log4j-user list.
