Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-3166:
-------------------------------------
You are correct that there is an error in the table that maps the LoggerConfig
Level to the event Level. When the LoggerConfig Level is "OFF" both the "ALL"
and "OFF" event levels should be YES.
> wrong documentation for logging with Level.OFF

> Key: LOG4J2-3166
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3166
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation
> Affects Versions: 2.14.1
> Reporter: Georg Sonnefeld
> Priority: Minor
>
> The documentation states that log events of level OFF should never be logged,
> whereas level ALL should always be logged.
> See the last table in section "LoggerConfig" here:
> https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.0/manual/architecture.html
> In fact the opposite is the case.
> The following statement in combination with the default configuration leads
> to a log entry.
> {code:java}
> LogManager.getLogger().log(Level.OFF, "test");{code}
