java -Dtinylog.writer.level=OFF does not seem to work

[ghost]

I'm trying to disable the logger by overriding it with a -D, however, the log files are still being generated as zero length files. Am I doing this correctly? Is there another way?

Using 2.2.0-M2 maven dep
Using jar tinylog.properties in jar file as follows:

writer          = rolling file
writer.locale   = en_US
writer.charset  = UTF-8
writer.level    = info
writer.latest   = logs/my.log
writer.file     = logs/my{count}.log
writer.format   = {date}:{level}:{message}
writer.policies = startup, size: 10kb
writer.backups  = 10

Do you want to disable only one writer or logging at all? -Dtinylog.writer.level=OFF does not prevent the creation of the writer. It only sets the logging level for the writer. However, -Dtinylog.level=OFF will disable logging completely and prevent the creation of any writer.

In this one case, I need it to simply disable all writers (all logging essentially). I will try -Dtinylog.level=OFF and let you know how it works. The end goal is not to have a zero length file upon startup. Thanks -Alan

Unfortunately, I can confirm that it still creates zero length log files based on the aforementioned tinylog.properties in my.jar file. I have a small snippet project that tests this in isolation.

java -Dtinylog.level=OFF -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -jar my.jar

I can reproduce the issue, too
