Another way I have about doing it is something like
<targets>
<target name="file:dev/logs/classloader.log"/>
<target name="console:stderr"/>
<target name="db:my-table">
<parameter name="username" value="dbsa"/>
<parameter name="password" value="secret"/>
</target>
</targets>
Then have a place where factorys could be registered. Factorys would look like
interface TargetFactory
{
LogTarget createTarget( String protocol,
String target,
Parameter parameters );
}
final LogTarget target =
factory.createTarget( "file", "/var/log/mylog.log", null );
