Disable Console Logging from MongoDB in Eclipse

Question

I'm using a Mongo Database to store information from my Java program. I'm using Eclipse and MongoDB 3.0 The problem I am having is that whenever my program has any interaction with Mongo it fills the console with red text from JULLogger.

I do not currently have any code to set the logger level, as all examples I have found on here or elsewhere online have given the error:

    Logger mongoLogger = Logger.getLogger( "org.mongodb.driver" );
    mongoLogger.setLevel(Level.SEVERE); 

   "The method getLogger(String) is undefined for the type Logger"

Here is the output:

Could anyone advise me on how to remove all the Mongo logs from my console?

Answer 1

Thank you very much Ross for your suggestion:

java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger("org.mongodb.driver").setLevel(java.util.log‌​ging.Level.SEVERE);

In fact the correct code was this, so only a minor change:

java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger("org.mongodb.driver").setLevel(Level.SEVERE);

I can confirm that I am not longer receiving any logs from mongo within the console at runtime.
