Appenders and Thresholds

Hi,
Can we set thresholds per appender, for example - print everything to a file, but only warnings and above to the Console.

I see that thresholds can be set only to loggers, and does not work with appenders.

Thanks!

Both log4j and log4cxx should support setting thresholds on  
appenders.  appenderskeleton.cpp does implement a setThreshold method  
and also setting the threshold using the setOption method which is  
should be enough to allow the configurators to work.  Did you try a  
configuration file that included setting the threshold on an appender  
and it did not work on log4cxx?  If so, could you share your  
configuration file?
