  1. Usage

LogBox in a ColdBox Application

Every ColdBox application can use LogBox by default since the main engine already uses it. By default ANY ColdBox application will be configured with a LogBox instance with the following appenders:

component{

    function configure(){
        logBox = {};

        // Define Appenders
        logBox.appenders = {
            console = { class="coldbox.system.logging.appenders.DummyAppender" }
        };

        // Root Logger
        logBox.root = {
            levelmax="OFF",
            levelMin="OFF",
            appenders="*"
        };
    }

}

Also, the app will log on ANY severity by default up to INFO for the root logger and the ColdBox package. You can customize this default behavior by creating or modifying the LogBox element in your ColdBox configuration file and follow the same configuration approach as any normal LogBox configuration file.
