          The ALL has the lowest possible rank and is intended to turn on all logging.
static Level DEBUG
          The DEBUG Level designates fine-grained informational events that are most useful to debug an application.
static Level ERROR
          The ERROR level designates error events that might still allow the application to continue running.
static Level FATAL
          The FATAL level designates very severe error events that will presumably lead the application to abort.

                int syslogEquivalent)
Instantiate a Level object.

Method Detail

toLevel

public static Level toLevel(String sArg)
Convert the string passed as argument to a level. If the conversion fails, then this method returns DEBUG.

toLevel

public static Level toLevel(int val)
Convert an integer passed as argument to a level. If the conversion fails, then this method returns DEBUG.

toLevel

public static Level toLevel(int val,
                            Level defaultLevel)
Convert an integer passed as argument to a level. If the conversion fails, then this method returns the specified default.

toLevel

public static Level toLevel(String sArg,
                            Level defaultLevel)
Convert the string passed as argument to a level. If the conversion fails, then this method returns the value of defaultLevel.
