Yes, due to deprecation that is much better. I'm not aware of how you would go about only logging a certain level. I'm not sure what the book was like more then two months ago so I'm not in any position to judge it now.

I bought the book a few years ago has it been updated? And I can't find it now so am wondering if it is worth buying again for more info? -----Original Message----- From: Schuweiler, Joel J. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 10, 2005 12:45 PM To: 'Log4J Users List' Subject: RE: Duplicate logging messages What I do is send everything that gets sent to the root logger to a null apender. I then define logger (also known as category, cat. Is deprecated) entries based on logger names and set the level I should accept there. The log also points to an appender. If you want to send ALL info or higher log messages to X appender you would just set the level of the root logger to info. I believe it is info by default but I don't know for certain. <level value="info"> On the log4j site there is a link to a commercial document. As much as I hated to buy it I did. All the information in this document can be found online in bits and pieces everywhere. This document just groups it together to make it easy to find. I would recommend it if you need speedy answers. -----Original Message----- From: Harp, George [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 10, 2005 12:41 PM To: 'Log4J Users List' Subject: RE: Duplicate logging messages The following works ok. Is it bad not to have the root logger in the script or does it create a default one? Also, what is the syntax to send only 1 Priority level to a appender? Lile say I wanted to send all INFO log messages to an appender?
