Hello Carolyn,
The default initialization procedure does support xml files. The file name has to end
with ".xml". I humbly suggest you reread
http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/docs/manual.html (not your local copy of log4j if it
is older than version 1.1.3) and tell us in what way it is not clear regarding default
initialization. Regards, Ceki
