ConsoleAppender
This must be a commonly asked question, but
I can't find the answer in the usual places
(FAQ, docs, etc.).
My program is using Log4J 1.1.3 and when I make
this initial call:
DOMConfigurator.configure(fileName);
I get these 2 warning messages. Tracing into Log4J
looks like they are being logged as part of the
setup process, before parsing my XML file.
> log4j:WARN File option not set for appender [STDOUT].
> log4j:WARN Are you using FileAppender instead of ConsoleAppender?
Sorry if this question is answered elsewhere, but
I'd appreciate a tip on what I have to do before
calling the configure method to suppress this.
And why doesn't FileAppender statically initialize
to System.out unless told otherwise?
Thanks,
... ron cain

Hi
It looks like you used a FileAppender instead of a ConsoleAppender in your
XML file.
You cannot use FileAppender to output your log on the Console.

The error message said it all. If you want to log to stdout then use
the ConsoleAppender, *not* the FileAppender.
