Subject: Re: [logback-user] Logger level from Layout class

Of course logger must be instantiated, we are good with that. I'm doing the instantiation of my logger in other class. 

I canīt do String level=log.getLevel.toString(), because from MyLayout class i don't have access to my logger. Unless of course, i do this:

log = (Logger)LoggerFactory.getLogger("employee");

then i can follow your advice:

level=log.getLevel.toString();

I could be wrong but, isnīt it a dirty way to get just a level ?

I was thinking maybe on get the logger level from MyLayout event (param from doLayout), but i canīt find any logger level, just event.getLevel(), and that is a differente one.

I hope to be clear on what i want.

Thanks guys

I don't understand the question anyway. If there is no need for a logger (that is, if it shall not become instantiated), what does it mean to know the log-level. Which routine shall read the config, if the logger isn't instantiated?

Otherwise do a "String level=log.getLevel.toString()"

Gaston,

Normally if you need to do something based on the logging level, you'd do.

if (log.isDebugEnabled()) {

 …

}

Is there some special reason why you'd need the exact level?

Hi, Is there any way to get from MyLayout the logger level? I don't want to do this:

package com.render;

import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

import ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger;

import ch.qos.logback.classic.spi.ILoggingEvent;

import ch.qos.logback.core.LayoutBase;

import com.render.domain.Employee;

public class MyLayout extends LayoutBase<ILoggingEvent>{

String level= ((Logger)LoggerFactory.getLogger("employee")).getLevel().toString();

...

...

This works well but i don't like to instantiate an object just to get a logger level.

This is my xml config file:

<configuration>

<logger name="employee" level="debug"/>

<appender name="CONSOLE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">

<encoder class="ch.qos.logback.core.encoder.LayoutWrappingEncoder">

       <layout class="com.render.MyLayout"  >

       </layout>

     </encoder>

    </appender>

<root level="off">

<appender-ref ref="CONSOLE" />

</root>

</configuration>

Thanks,

Gastón.
