<appender name="A1" class="org.apache.log4j.FileAppender">

                <!-- Accept all LoggingEvents containing the string
                "1" in its message field. -->
		<filter class="org.apache.log4j.varia.StringMatchFilter">
                  <param name="StringToMatch" value="1" />
                  <param name="AcceptOnMatch" value="true" />
		</filter>
                <!-- Reject all LoggingEvents containing the string
                "Message" in its message field. -->
		<filter class="org.apache.log4j.varia.StringMatchFilter">
                  <param name="StringToMatch" value="Message" />
                  <param name="AcceptOnMatch" value="false" />
		</filter>

	</appender>
