Using multiple appenders in log4J

> Is it possible to have a different logging level for each appender. ie: one appender picks up all logging and the other picks up only logging warnings and above.

Yes, you would set the level in your logger, then attach that logger to you appender.

> Also is it possible to assign individual appenders to pick up logging from specific classes.

Yes define a logger for each class, and assign the required appender to that logger

Why do you reask the same question

Here is the log4j.xml of JBOSS (J2EE Application Server), you can see that it has many appender:

Appenders are differenced by a name.
Use this to difference the things you want.

That is the same as what I hasd already posted, can you explain why you accepted only that comment please?
