Salut Ceki,
Thanks for the info... but... :)

one question tough, what about the dynamicity (sic? :)
the code I see suggests the developer enters the variable at runtime into a List/Map
if I want to be as 'detached as possible' from the code, is there a way log4j can setup variables or am I 'stuck' with system variable ?

Re: Setting up trace ony for a certain user



Hello Christophe,

SiftingAppender is prefect for this type of separation. See
http://logback.qos.ch/manual/appenders.html#SiftingAppender for more
information. If you intend to pursue this venue, please respond on the
logback-user mailing list. Do not respond here.
