Scott,
Have you tried it? Yes, it should work as you expect, and I think your
syntax is fine, but then I don't use the PropertyConfigurator. In XML it
would look like:
<logger name="<package_name>">
<level value="debug"/>
<appender-ref name="A1"/>
</logger>
<logger name="<another_package_name>">
<level value="fatal"/>
<appender-ref name="A1"/>
</logger>
or something like that. I use this quite often to set the level for all the
classes within a given package and then I set the level for individual
classes within that package as needed. So, adding another configuration:
<logger name="<another_package_name>.FooClass1">
<level value="debug"/>
</logger>
hope it helps,
-Mark
