RE: disabling ALL logging via configuration files using the disable directive

[Ceki Gülcü <cg...@qos.ch>]

Otis,

The answer is

log4j.disable=FATAL

This turns of all logging statements regardless of category for any priority higher or equal to FATAL, which happens to include all priorities.

To exclude INFO and DEBUG write

log4j.disable=INFO

Hope this helps, Ceki
