You need to let your Logger (why are you using the deprecated Category class?) that it needs to use at least TRACE level.
I've updated the Wiki page. -----Original Message----- From: David Siegel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 19, 2003 3:57 PM To: Log4J Developers List Subject: RE: Custom Log Level Example(s) Thanks Jim, I created a class using this example, but cannot get the output to show. I get all levels but the TRACE level. Can anyone point out what I am doing wrong please? Thanks The test class: import org.apache.log4j.*; public class TestLogging { // Initialize a logging category. Here, we get THE ROOT CATEGORY //static Category cat = Category.getRoot(); // Or, get a custom category static Category cat = Category.getInstance(TestLogging.class.getName()); public static void main(String args[]) { // Try a few logging methods cat.setAdditivity(true); //--> Will append cat.debug("Start of main()"); cat.log(TraceLevel.TRACE, "Got here"); cat.info("Testing a log message with priority set to INFO"); cat.warn("Testing a log message with priority set to WARN"); cat.error("Testing a log message with priority set to ERROR"); cat.fatal("Testing a log message with priority set to FATAL"); cat.log(Level.ERROR, "Test ERROR message"); new TestLogging().init(); } public void init() { java.util.Properties prop = System.getProperties(); java.util.Enumeration enum = prop.propertyNames(); cat.info("***System Environment As Seen By Java***"); cat.debug("***Format: PROPERTY = VALUE***"); while (enum.hasMoreElements()) { String key = (String) enum.nextElement(); cat.info(key + " = " + System.getProperty(key)); } } } The config file: #### Use two appenders, one to log to console, another to log to a file log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, stdout, R # Print only messages of priority WARN or higher for your category log4j.category.your.category.name=DEBUG #### First appender writes to console log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout # Pattern to output the caller's file name and line number. log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%5p [%t] (%F:%L) - %m%n #### Second appender writes to a file log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.R.File=example.log # Control the maximum log file size log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=100KB log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=1 log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n At 01:14 PM 3/19/2003 -0500, Jim Moore wrote: >http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?Log4JProjectPages/TraceLev >el > ********************************************* David Siegel GIS Developer Harvard University Office for Information Systems The Harvard Geospatial Library: http://hgl.harvard.edu ********************************************* --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
