[jira] [Commented] (LOG4J2-2878) How to change the level of the appender

["Ralph Goers (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2878?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17147544#comment-17147544 ] 

Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-2878:
-------------------------------------

Appender's don't have a Level. The AppenderControl does but it isn't consistently used. On an Appender you would typically use a ThresholdFilter.  You can also set the Level on the AppenderRef, but that may not affect all the ways to get to the Appender.

> I am trying to change the Level programmatically .
> I am able to change the logger level using the loggerConfig, but I could not find a way to change the appender level.
>  # Is there any code example that demonstrate how to change the appender level like we have  :[http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/customconfig.html#Hybrid] for logger level change, as I see the level in appender is final.
>  # To change appender level should we change the appender or appenderRef? if I change appenderRef of a logger then any other logger using the same appender will get same level. (I mean appender is a singleton)
> Thanks for your help in advance.
