Ok, forget what I said earlier. I'm not sure what I was reading? Must be
tired
today. Anyway, your XML config below should work. I expect that the
logger
"com.mee.topup.util" and its children would log at the info level (and
above)
to the appenderInfo appender. All other loggers outside of this naming
hierarchy would log to the appenderSystem appender at the debug level (and
above).
Is this not what you are seeing?
Are you saying that when the log level for "com.mee.topup.util" and its
children
is something other than "info", you would like it not to be logged to the
appederInfo appender, but to the appenderSystem appender? Then you don't
want
to use turn off additivity at all. Set up the appenderInfo appender to
have
both the MIN and MAX levels set to "info". You don't need to specify the
level
value for the "com.mee.topup.util" logger, just the appenderInfo appender.
So
leave your root logger config alone and do....
<appender name="appenderInfo"
class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="MinLevel" value="INFO"/>
<param name="MaxLevel" value="INFO"/>
....
....
....
</appender>
<logger name="com.mee.topup.util">
<appender-ref ref="appenderInfo"/>
</logger>
I think "MinLevel" and "MaxLevel" are the correct values, but that's just
from
memory, so if it doesn't work, double check the docs.
BTW, you should use <logger> instead of <category> and <level> instead of
<priority>.
