Log4J Question

["Jones, Marty B." <ma...@dailyaccess.com>]

I was wondering if Log4J will allow me to do the following:

configure a RollingFileAppender that logs standard output.
configure a RollingFileAppender that logs info and warning output.
configure a RollingFileAppender that logs error level output.

have a single logger that will use one of the above appenders based upon the
logging level of the log method called within a given class.


Thank you for your time,

Marty

Yes, you can do this.  

* You will need to use the XML configuration file, as this supports
appender filters.
* Define each of the appenders in the xml file, and create a filter
section for each resepective appender based on the level.

* attach all the appenders to your single logger.

The wiki has a good example on this:
