How do I get a Level object from a Priority object

["Kn, Guruprasad (MED)" <Gu...@geind.ge.com>]

Hi
We were using a very old version of log4J. Recently shifted to 1.2.3.
However I am faced with a backward compatibility problem. I will try to
explain the problem as best as I can.

Priority class doc says that do not use Priority directly and use Level
instead. LoggingEvent class has a field level which gives out the Priority
object instead! Is there a way I can convert this Priority object into a
Level object. Are the integer values corresponding to the levels and
priorities the same. i.e Can I use something like
Level myLevel = Level.toLevel( Priority.INFO.toInt()); to get the Level
corresponding to INFO
I know this is a contorted way, but I dont want to do a mapping based on
case statements

Could someone please tell me if this is the only way or is there any other
elegant way to achieve the same

Thanks
Guru
