Mac OS X Tiger (10.4.6 on Intel). I did a search and can't find

It looks like I need APR and then I can tell configure where it is
but I
don't know what APR is so I don't know how to get it. Can anyone
help?
APR is the Apache Portable Runtime (http://apr.apache.org/), a
library which encapsulates OS-specific functions. The new log4cxx
version is built on it. You need apr and apr-util, which can be
downloaded from http://apr.apache.org/download.cgi.
Just build both libraries and pass the build directories to
the log4cxx configure script with the --with-apr and --with-apr-util
parameters.
I have not yet checked if the newest APR version 1.2.7 works
with log4cxx, but minor versions are usually compatible,
so it should.
Thanks Andreas. I needed apr and apr-util. Everything is compiled and
installed. Now to try out log4cxx and see if I can use it with my
Objective-C based app :)
