Is Category.getPriority() supposed return null if Priority is not
explicitly set??
I wrote some code to check the priority of a particular class but
I am getting a null pointer returned. My assumption was that the
priority that was "inherited" would be returned if not explictly set
on that Category. The alternative is to call isEnabledFor() and loop
through all standard priorities to determine the reporting level
for a class. Seems like returning the inherited Priority would be
a desirable thing.

It's allowed Scott. Strange as it seems.
Ceiki told me to lok at the source code to see why.
Check the archives for my message and the response.

There is a method called getChainedLevel in the Category class. Just use that.
