Logger is a subclass of category, which is now deprecated. But now some jars still use category, so you need to use log4j.category . org.mybatis control, for example: org.mybatis, org.apache , etc.
-------------The following is reproduced----------------------
Common log4j.properties file, which records logs in console and logger.log file:
log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, stdout, logfile
log4j.category.org.springframework=ERROR
log4j.category.org.apache=INFO
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p [%c] - %m%n
log4j.appender.logfile=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.logfile.File=logger.log
log4j.appender.logfile.MaxFileSize=512KB
log4j.appender.logfile.MaxBackupIndex=5
log4j.appender.logfile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.logfile.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p [%c] - %m%n
If you want to output different files for different classes (take cn.com.Test as an example), you must first define in Test.java:
private static Log logger = LogFactory.getLog(Test.class);
Then add in log4j.properties:
log4j.logger.cn.com.Test= DEBUG, test
log4j.appender.test=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.test.File=${myweb.root}/WEB-INF/log/test.log
log4j.appender.test.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.test.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p [%c] - %m%n
That is, let the logger in cn.com.Test use the configuration made by log4j.appender.test .
但是，如果在同一类中需要输出多个日志文件呢？其实道理是一样的，先在Test.java中定义:
private static Log logger1 = LogFactory.getLog("myTest1");
private static Log logger2 = LogFactory.getLog("myTest2");
然后在log4j.properties中加入:
log4j.logger.myTest1= DEBUG, test1
log4j.appender.test1=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.test1.File=${myweb.root}/WEB-INF/log/test1.log
log4j.appender.test1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.test1.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p [%c] - %m%n
log4j.logger.myTest2= DEBUG, test2
log4j.appender.test2=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.test2.File=${myweb.root}/WEB-INF/log/test2.log
log4j.appender.test2.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.test2.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p [%c] - %m%n
也就是在用logger时给它一个自定义的名字(如这里的"myTest1")，然后在log4j.properties中做出相应配置即可。别忘了不同日志要使用不同的logger(如输出到test1.log的要用logger1.info("abc"))。
还有一个问题，就是这些自定义的日志默认是同时输出到log4j.rootLogger所配置的日志中的，如何能只让它们输出到自己指定的日志中呢？别急，这里有个开关：
log4j.additivity.myTest1 = false
它用来设置是否同时输出到log4j.rootLogger所配置的日志中，设为false就不会输出到其它地方啦！注意这里的"myTest1"是你在程序中给logger起的那个自定义的名字！
如果你说，我只是不想同时输出这个日志到log4j.rootLogger所配置的logfile中，stdout里我还想同时输出呢！那也好办，把你的log4j.logger.myTest1 = DEBUG, test1改为下式就OK啦！
log4j.logger.myTest1=DEBUG, test1
