Configuring The Root Logger

Configuring a root logger is mandatory for LogBox. This is very easy and just a few arguments.

public void root([numeric levelMin="-1",] [numeric levelMax="4",] string appenders)

Parameters

Name

Description

levelMin

The default minimum log level for the root logger. (OPTIONAL. Defaults to 0 [FATAL].)

levelMax

The default maximum log level for the root logger. (OPTIONAL. Defaults to 4 [DEBUG].)

appenders

A list of appenders to configure the root logger with. Use * to add all registered appenders

config.root( appenders="*" );
config.root( levelMax="WARN", appenders="console,files" );
config.root( levelMin="INFO", levelMax="DEBUG", appenders="*" );
