      Instead of using Logger.getEffectiveLevel() and checking the level, you can use Logger.isDebugEnabled() or the analogous method for whichever level you are concerned with.

      First you need to add this logging configuration in your standalone.xml:

      <logger category="de.der.sample.business">
      <level name="TRACE"/>
      </logger>

      A test webservice project is attached. Deploy it and call the webservice using SoapUI or any test client. You will see the values returned by getEffectiveLevel() and also isTraceEnabled() and isDebugEnabled(). The isLevelEnabled() methods return correctly but getEffectiveLevel() sometimes returns TRACE and sometimes DEBUG. You may need to redeploy several times to see both values.

    Description

      The Logger.getEffectiveLevel() method doesn't seem to return correct values.

      In a test, we set the log level for a category to TRACE and the method sometimes returns TRACE and sometimes returns DEBUG. Whichever value is returns stays the same until the next time the application is deployed at which point it may change.

      The same behavior seems to exist as well on EAP 7.0 and EAP 6.4.

          • Minor - To be worked after urgent, high, and medium priorities are resolved. This term is chosen when the severity of the issue is low, or the complexity or effort to correct it may be higher, relatively speaking. For low priority issues, known workarounds exist or are not needed due to the trivial effort needed to address the issue.

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
