Of course logger must be instantiated, we are good with that. I'm doing the instantiation of my logger in other class. I can´t 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, isn´t 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 can´t find any logger level, just event.getLevel(), and that is a differente one. I hope to be clear on what i want.

I need to show logger level on my log. Ex: Log:event level: ERROR logger level: debug [main] Company_Module - Personal: name=John, age=36, id=3124362] I understand isDebugEnabled, but this is not what i'm looking. My logger levele (set on xml config file) could be any level (info, trace, error, debug...) is not about debug level, is about print the level from logger that i can set on xml. If i had this in my xml :<logger name="employee" level="info"/> my log would print : event level: ERROR logger level: info[main] Company_Module - Personal: name=John, age=36, id=3124362] My concern is about what other way exist to get logger level different what i'm using now: String level= ((Logger)LoggerFactory.getLogger("employee")).getLevel().toString(); public String doLayout(ILoggingEvent event) { StringBuffer sbuf = new StringBuffer(128); sbuf.append("event level: "); sbuf.append(event.getLevel()); sbuf.append(" logger level: "); sbuf.append(getLevel()); sbuf.append(" ["); sbuf.append(event.getThreadName()); sbuf.append("] "); sbuf.append(event.getLoggerName()); sbuf.append(" - "); logMsg.append(employee.getPerson()); return sbuf.toString();} public String getLevel() { return level; } public void setLevel(String level) { this.level = level;} Thanks, GastonFrom: nabble@diroussel.xsmail.com Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2013 20:18:37 +0100 To: logback-user@qos.ch Subject: Re: [logback-user] Logger level from Layout class 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?
