Root Logger

Root Logger controls the log level of all the appenders. However, if the log level of the referenced appender in root logger is different from the log level specified in the parent appender, the higher priority log level overrides the lower priority log level.

For example, if the log level of a the root logger is Error and the log level of the Network appender is Trace, the log level Trace overrides Error and the system considers log messages with log level Trace at the runtime.

Example: Root Logger

<root>

<priority value="error" />
<appender-ref ref="SDK" />

</root>
