Interface Thresholdable

public interface Thresholdable
An interface that defines the required methods for supporting the setting and getting of a level threshold. Components should implement this interface if logging events they process should meet a certain threshold before being processed further. Examples of this are Appenders and Receivers which will not process logging events unless the event level is at or greater than a set threshold level.

  • Method Details

    • setThreshold

      void setThreshold(org.apache.log4j.Level level)
      Sets the component theshold to the given level.
      Parameters:
      level - The threshold level events must equal or be greater than before further processing can be done.

    • getThreshold

      org.apache.log4j.Level getThreshold()
      Gets the current threshold setting of the component.
      Returns:
      Level The current threshold level of the component.

    • isAsSevereAsThreshold

      boolean isAsSevereAsThreshold(org.apache.log4j.Level level)
      Returns true if the given level is equals or greater than the current threshold value of the component.
      Parameters:
      level - The level to test against the component threshold.
      Returns:
      boolean True if level is equal or greater than the component threshold.
