Configuration file

[Slimane AMAR]

Hi all,

At first, thanks for the tricks to compile log4cpp whit Sun CC 5.x (that works fine).

I'm new to log4cpp and I need some help to use a configuration file
(xml or other format).
Can someone give me an example of file.

Thanks

I believe the current version of logcpp does not support the use of configuration files(xml or otherwise).

It does! Have a look at the PropertyConfigurator class. It can read log4j compatible configuration property files.
See the tests subdirectory for some examples.

Hi there!

I am using the latest stable release: log4cpp-0.2.7.tar.gz and there is not any log4j compatible PropertyConfigurator. May be it was added to the some 0.3.x version.

With log4cpp-0.2.7 I use log4cpp::SimpleConfigurator, maybe it is depricated in the next versions, but there is a sample of my log4cpp.init:

#category root
appender root basic file c:/var/log/APValidator.log
#appender root pattern file c:/var/log/APValidator.log %d-%p-%c : %m%n
priority root DEBUG

#category CMD5Validator
appender CMD5Validator basic file c:/var/log/CMD5Validator.log
priority CMD5Validator DEBUG

#category UtilMD5Validator
appender UtilMD5Validator basic file c:/var/log/UtilMD5Validator.log
priority UtilMD5Validator DEBUG

tests subdirectory consists an example of using log4cpp::SimpleConfigurator (tests/testConfig.cpp).

best regards,
Leonid
