This by itself does not initialize log4j. You need to do a properties/XML
file init or explicitly call one of the configure methods prior to trying to
obtain a Category. For the simplist way, simply do :
BasicConfigurator.configure();
Category log=Category.getInstance(XYZ.class.getName());

Again, simply obtaining root does not configure the log4j system.
