Thanks for the reply,
It turns out the problem was I wasn't including the
log4j.categoryFactory=com.foo.MyCategoryFactory
property in my setup even.

Hi Jeff,
By default, the configurator will create
Category objects of the default type.
Have you told the configurator to create instances of
your custom Category? If not, and you are (elsewhere)
trying to cast this Category object to your custom class
then it will generate a ClassCastException.
I forget how you override the created Category type,
but it's in the docs for whatever configurator type you're using.
Hope this helps...
Simon
