9.log4j.properties例子:additivity

package com.v512.log4j;

import org.apache.log4j.Logger;

public class HelloLog4J {
	// 构造记录器,形参是记录器所在的类,表示要在该类做日志
	private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(HelloLog4J.class);
	/** 
	 * @param args
	 */
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		getMessage();
	}
	
	private static void getMessage() {
		// 记录下各种级别的信息,这些信息放在哪儿,以哪种方式存放,在log4j.properties文件中配置.
		logger.debug("This is debug message.");
		logger.info("This is a info message.");
		logger.warn("This is a warn message.");
		logger.error("This is a error message.");
	}

}

package com.toogen.log4j;

import org.apache.log4j.Logger;

public class HelloLog4JToogen {
	// 构造记录器,形参是记录器所在的类,表示要在该类做日志
	private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(HelloLog4JToogen.class);
	/** 
	 * @param args
	 */
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		getMessage();
	}
	
	private static void getMessage() {
		// 记录下各种级别的信息,这些信息放在哪儿,以哪种方式存放,在log4j.properties文件中配置.
		logger.debug("This is debug message.");
		logger.info("This is a info message.");

执行com.v512.log4j.HelloLog4J时,控制台上的消息是
20120727 15:19:46 INFO com.v512.log4j.HelloLog4J.getMessage(HelloLog4J.java:18) [main] This is a info message.
20120727 15:19:46 WARN com.v512.log4j.HelloLog4J.getMessage(HelloLog4J.java:19) [main] This is a warn message.
20120727 15:19:46 ERROR com.v512.log4j.HelloLog4J.getMessage(HelloLog4J.java:20) [main] This is a error message.

执行com.toogen.log4j.HelloLog4JToogen时
文件Message.log(工程目录下)是
[main] DEBUG com.toogen.log4j.HelloLog4JToogen - This is debug message.
[main] INFO com.toogen.log4j.HelloLog4JToogen - This is a info message.
[main] WARN com.toogen.log4j.HelloLog4JToogen - This is a warn message.
[main] ERROR com.toogen.log4j.HelloLog4JToogen - This is a error message.

总结:加上log4j.additivity.com.toogen.log4j=false后,log4j.rootLogger对com.toogen.log4j的类失效,完全由com.toogen.log4j自己
定义的appender控制,具体说，默认情况下子Logger会继承父Logger的appender。若是additivity设为false，则子Logger只会在自己的appender里输出，而不会在父Logger的appender里输出。
