Package org.apache.log4j

Class Category

java.lang.Object
org.apache.log4j.Category
Direct Known Subclasses:
Logger
@Deprecated(since="2022-01-27") public class Category extends Object
Deprecated.
Apache Log4j 1 has reached end of life in 2015 and is no longer supported.

This class is a minimal implementation of the original org.apache.log4j.Category class (as found in log4j 1.2) by delegation of all calls to a Logger instance.

Log4j's trace, debug(), info(), warn(), error() printing methods are directly mapped to their SLF4J equivalents. Log4j's fatal() printing method is mapped to SLF4J's error() method with a FATAL marker.

      Returns:

    • getLevel

      public final Level getLevel()
      Deprecated.
      Returns the assigned Level, if any, for this Category. This implementation always returns null.
      Returns:
      Level - the assigned Level, can be null.

    • getPriority

      public final Level getPriority()
      Deprecated.
      Please use getLevel() instead.

    • isDebugEnabled

      public boolean isDebugEnabled()
      Deprecated.
      Delegates to Logger.isDebugEnabled() method in SLF4J

    • isInfoEnabled

      public boolean isInfoEnabled()
      Deprecated.
      Delegates to Logger.isInfoEnabled() method in SLF4J

    • isWarnEnabled

      public boolean isWarnEnabled()
      Deprecated.
      Delegates to Logger.isWarnEnabled() method in SLF4J

    • isErrorEnabled

      public boolean isErrorEnabled()
      Deprecated.

    • isEnabledFor

      public boolean isEnabledFor(Priority p)
      Deprecated.
      Determines whether the priority passed as parameter is enabled in the underlying SLF4J logger. Each log4j priority is mapped directly to its SLF4J equivalent, except for FATAL which is mapped as ERROR.
      Parameters:
      p - the priority to check against
      Returns:
      true if this logger is enabled for the given level, false otherwise.
