> Why does using a threshold=off not achieve the same as "pause"?
It does, but for semantics it might be useful to have this 'behaviour', even if it's implemented by having a Threshold set to off. I also agree it's very blurred.
Could we convert this Pauseable interface then into a Thresholdable? (with setLevel/getLevel). From a GUI perspective I can implement pause as setting Threshold=Off.
If we use this interface, and get Appender/Logger et all all supporting this interface, then there is nothing to stop us having all the lugin, Category, and Appender definitions sitting in a nice GUI tree for ease of management.
Please help me understand something. I thought that the Pausible interface was needed to pause/resume plugins. It is not clear to me what pausing/resuming means in case of an appender or a logger.
Is this a case of generalization where generality does not apply? What am I missing?
