This is what I have tried:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration>
    <Appenders>
        <Console name="Console" target="SYSTEM_OUT">
            <PatternLayout pattern="%-5p [%t]: %m%n"/>
        </Console>
    </Appenders>
    <Loggers>
        <Logger name="debug" level="debug">
            <AppenderRef ref="Console"/>
        </Logger>

        <Logger name="verbose" level="info">
            <AppenderRef ref="Console"/>
        </Logger>

        <Logger name="normal" level="warn">
            <AppenderRef ref="Console"/>
        </Logger>
    </Loggers>
</Configuration>

Then I call this:
Logger logger = LogManager.getLogger("verbose");
logger.info("Hello World");

But I see duplicated lines in the output.
INFO  [main]: Hello World
11:36:18.191 [main] INFO  verbose - Hello World

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Arwen

Subject: Set the log level based on command line args

I am investigating migrating from log4j 1 to log4j 2.  A pattern that I have in 
many of my applications is setting the log level based on command line 
arguments.  So if the -v (verbose) option is passed I set the log level to 
Info.  The default is set to warn.
    if (line.hasOption("v"))
    {
      logger.setLevel(Level.INFO);
    }

    if (line.hasOption("d"))
    {
      logger.setLevel(Level.DEBUG);
    }

In the world of log4j 2, what is the recommended way to accomplish this?

Thanks,
Arwen
