Setting different log levels to different appenders for a specific package (logger)

[Asma Zinneera Jabir <az...@gmail.com>]

I want package com.abc.xyz to log only ERRORs to the console and INFO and
above to a file. How do I give the configuration in log4j2.xml for this?
Tried doing the below but didn't work.

<Loggers>
<Root level="info">
<AppenderRef ref="CONSOLE"/>
<AppenderRef ref="LOGFILE"/>
</Root>

<Logger name="com.abc.xyz">
     <AppenderRef ref="LOGFILE" level="info"/>
     <AppenderRef ref="CONSOLE" level="error" />
    </Logger>
</Loggers>

I don't remember if there's a simpler way to do it, but the advanced way of
doing this would be using a RoutingAppender which delegates to those two
different appender refs you have.

You can also take a look at additivity which is related to what you're
asking about.
