Levels in UGLI

["Shapira, Yoav" <Yo...@mpi.com>]

Hi,
Which levels should be defined in org.apache.ugli.Logger?  I see debug,
info, warn, error, but no off, all, fatal, or trace.  I'm fine with
that, but I'm just curious as to the reasoning that went into choosing
the UGLI levels.

off and all are not printing methods. No one ever writes nor would want to 
write:

   logger.off("some msg"); (a never printing message)

or

   logger.all("some msg"); (an always printing message)

fatal is not that different from error. similarly, trace is not really 
different from debug. A much finer level of control can be achieved by 
using domains. This will become clear once domains are implemented.

I hope this answers your question.
