Re: how to log to different files

[Jacob Kjome]

You are on the right track.  Now you just have to set additivity to "false" 
for each named logger that you don't want to inherit from the root 
logger.  Can't remember the syntax for that in properties files, though.  I 
never use them.  Hopefully someone else can provide the syntax.

Hi
I wish to have output from classes to go into a log file and some other
classes (from the same packages) into another log file. I have the
following log4j.properties configuration but it doesn't work.

and all the other classes to log to 'file'.
What this produces is both files (searchfile and file) are created and
contains exactly the same logs. All logs (including those from the 4
classes) goes into both the files.
This is what I have in my Java files.
static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(CatCrawler.class);
PropertyConfigurator.configure(path_to_log4j.properties_file);
