Dear all,

I'm using RAD 7.0 with log4j 1.3 alpha8.

Run following test case:

package com.foo.transactionhistory.test;
import java.util.List;
import org.apache.log4j.FileAppender;
import org.apache.log4j.Level;
import org.apache.log4j.LogManager;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import org.apache.log4j.SimpleLayout;
import org.apache.log4j.joran.JoranConfigurator;

import com.foo.test.IntegrationTest;
public class TestLogging extends IntegrationTest {
static Logger logger;

public void testLog() {

JoranConfigurator jc = new JoranConfigurator();
jc.doConfigure("test/java/com/foo/transactionhistory/test/logging.xml",
LogManager.getLoggerRepository());

List errorList = jc.getErrorList();
for (int i = 0; i < errorList.size(); i++) {
System.out.println(errorList.get(i));
}

Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(this.getClass().getName());

logger.info("Info...");
logger.warn("Warn...");
logger.fatal("Fatal...");
logger.debug("Debug...");

}
}

Logging.xml setting
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

Here's the questions:
1. I've tried to disable springframework console log (red color in the above) by setting in logging.xml
<logger name="org.springframework" additivity="false">
<level value="OFF"/>
</logger>

But the setting doesn't work. The console logging is the same as logging without above setting. Any suggestions on why it's not working?

2. Is it correct to set the logging.xml in program, using JoranConfigurator? Any other way to configure logging.xml file in RAD 7.0?

Thanks a lot.
