Mark, You can download the log4j source code and look at the parsing code yourself. It is located in org.apache.log4j.aml.DOMConfigurator. And yes, you can include categories as part of the configuration file.
Are you looking for information on how to structure the xml configuration file? There is also a dtd located in the xml directory. -Mark -----Original Message----- From: mark sull [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, March 04, 2002 7:02 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Good site! Questions Hi, I recently viewed your site, http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/docs/documentation.html and found it quite interesting. I have a couple of questions: I can't find the source code for how to read an XML based configuration file using a DOM parser. If this cannot be posted, could this be sent on? It would be quite useful to read it. I also wonder about parsing configuration files. Can categories be placed/defined in these files? How are the configuration files recognised/parsed when passed into a programming structure? Keep up the good work on an excellent site, Regards, Mark. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
