problem with LevelRangeFilter - don't work well (XML)

[Rainer Schuetze <sc...@geoinform.fh-mainz.de>]

Hi,

I tried to filter some important logging events in different files. 
However, the appender logs all levels in the file. Actually, I'm not 
sure which parameter I have to set within the filter element. I suppose 
the parameter for min & max are named wrong.
Is the Filter objective full implemented in Log4cxx yet?

I also tried the filter XML-example of the cvs-project which uses the 
LevelMatchFilter (see below), but I wasn't able to filter the log. Do I 
miss something?

>       <param name="LevelToMatch" value="warn"/>
>     </filter>

Thanks for your help,

Rainer

Hi,
well, the problem with the filter continues. I'm not able to filter the 
loggings to different files.
The basic question are:
* Is the filter implemented in Log4cxx?
* Does somebody have some experience with the Filter and might send me 
an example?!

In my application I'm using the Macro (e.g. LOG4CXX_DEBUG ) for logging. 
  Might the filter be ignored because the Macro calls 
logger->forcedLog(...)?

Has somebody experience with the filtering?

regards,

Rainer
