Logger.setLevel() doesn't enable logging correctly
- by ripper234
Situation: I have this log4j logger:
private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(ThisClassName.class);
And am trying to set it programatically through:
Logger.getLogger(ThisClassName.class).setLevel(Level.DEBUG);
Still, DEBUG level prints are swalloed (while INFO prints are printed successfully).
Even this bit has no effect: Logger.getRootLogger().setLevel(Level.DEBUG);
Calling logger.debug("foo") reaches Category.forcedLog() and ConsoleAppender.doAppend(), and then fails (quits) at:
if(!isAsSevereAsThreshold(event.getLevel()))
Any idea why this is happening?
