As far as I'm aware, the unit tests do use the dynamic library. Looking at the stacktrace, I would expect the '--version' argument to not work, since it seems to be happening before main() - my suspicion is that your code has another static initialization(unrelated to log4cxx) someplace, that is messing with memory.
I'm not sure how much you know about the startup sequence, so here's a quick overview. When a C++ application starts up, it is going to run through all of the static constructors. Log4cxx has a lot of these in it. So if your code looks like this: static log4cxx::Logger logger = log4cxx::LogManager::getLogger( "foo" ); int main(){ return 0; } the constructor for 'logger' happens before main is run. In this particular case, it seems that the classnamepatternconverter is trying to register with the Log4cxx core, so that log4cxx will know how to load the class. Perhaps it loads them in alphabetical order?
