How do I achieve, that log4j uses the xml-configfile?
Where do I find more about the structure and the possibilities in the
xml-config?

You could also use an XML type include.

add this to the top of the specific_log4j.xml file:
        <!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration [
                <!ENTITY generic-file SYSTEM "generic.xml">
        ]>
        <log4j:configuration ...>
And then where you need to include the file:
        &generic-file;
And get on with the rest:
        </log4j:configuration>

Anyone know what happens when you have two definitions that are the same
in the
DOMConfigurator?

Alan.

A category can be defined only in a single property. Hence, merging two
property files defining the same category will lead to unexpected
results. Thus, merging will only work properly with disjoint category
definitions. Disjoint category definitions in turn mean that invoking
PropertyConfigurator (or DOMConfigurator) on multiple times is safe as
long as the category definitions in the different config files are
disjoint....

Hope this helps, Ceki
