public class GFG {
  
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // Create LogRecord object
        LogRecord logRecord = new LogRecord(
            Level.parse("800"),
            "Hi Logger");
  
        System.out.println(
            "Previous Level: "
            + logRecord.getLevel().getName());
  
        // set level of the LogRecord
        logRecord.setLevel(Level.FINEST);
  
        // print result

            + logRecord.getLevel().getName());
    }

            Level.parse("400"),
            "GFG Logger");
  
        System.out.println(
            "Previous Level: "
            + logRecord.getLevel().getName());
