If you can use log4j 1.3, you could use an ExpressionFilter, with the expression:
CLASS ~= 'javax.naming' || CLASS ~= 'org.jnp.server' With acceptonmatch to false See JavaDoc for more info on the filter. http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/logging/log4j/trunk/src/java/org/apach e/log4j/filter/ExpressionFilter.java?view=markup Some of the keywords you can use are: MSG, LOGGER, LEVEL, CLASS, FILE, LINE, METHOD, NDC, AND PROP.AAAA (which allows you to filter on mdc with key AAAA) Chainsaw describes this stuff in detail in the tutorial. Scott -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Whitlock [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 31, 2005 1:01 PM To: Log4J-User Subject: Filter Based On Logging Class Hey all, I would like to implement a filter that would allow me to restrict messages based on the class that is sending the LoggingEvent. So I could have something like: <filter class="my.filter.Class"> <param name="acceptOnMatch" value="false" /> <param name="expression" value="javax.naming org.jnp.server" /> </filter> And the filter would not log any class that created a LoggingEvent if that class was in either of those packages. Is there one of these available? If not, how should I go about writing one? I do not see how I can get the class from the LoggingEvent. Take care, Jeremy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
