Stop displaying logger output to console from dependencies

I have a few Maven dependencies in my Java project that clutter the console output with redundant log info. I want to disable such logging.

Setting the additivity property to false might help. But could not use it properly.

I am looking for a log4j.xml config that will only print log output (warn, error, …) from my project and not from any dependencies.

Answer

It looks like the log4j2.xml was overriding all other configs. As of now, I have switched that dependency off. Maybe log4j2 > log4j hence the issue. Also, XML gets a higher priority over properties as I have seen somewhere.
