<p>Log4j is <a
href="http://logging.apache.org/site/binindex.cgi"><b>available
for download</b></a> from a number of mirrors. Please
use these mirrors as they improve download time and save
bandwidth.
</p>
- <p>As of release 1.2.8. log4j
searches for the file
- <code>log4j.xml</code> as well as the file
- <code>log4j.properties</code> during initialization. See the
- <a href="HISTORY">HISTORY</a> file for the firther details.
- </p>
- <p>In addition to many performance
improvements, bug fixes,
- and other small enhancements, log4j 1.2 adds JMX support,
- Mapped Diagnostic Contexts, JDBC logging, graphical log
- viewer (chainsaw), and buffered IO capability. One
- important change is the replacement of the
- <code>Category</code> class with <code>Logger</code> class
- and the <code>Priority</code> class with the
- <code>Level</code> class in order to facilitate migrating
- from the JDK 1.4 logging API to log4j. <a

- </p>
- <p>Version 1.2 is the 22nd major
public release of log4j.
- All changes except the removal of deprecated methods are
- backward compatible such that log4j 1.2 can be considered
- a drop in replacement for log4j 1.1.3. The only exception
- is the renaming of the <code>CategoryFactory</code> class
- to <code>LoggerFactory</code> class such that subclasses
- of <code>Category</code> class must be modified and
- recompiled. <em>The recommended pattern for extending the
- <code>Logger</code> class is wrapping. Moreover, we
- strongly discourage casual users from subclassing the
- <code>Category</code> or <code>Logger</code>
- classes. </em>
