Is there a bug in the DOMConfigurator ? When parsing <logger> elements, (inside the parseCategory() method) the Loader class loader is always used to instantiate a Logger via reflection. The LoggerFactory class, if specified in <categoryFactory> element, is not used to instantiate the Logger!
You have to use <category> element with "class" attribute to instantiate other logger class than the Logger. The understand the <category> element is not to be used since it is not mentioned in the log4j complete manual. Any experiences! TIA. /Geir Antonsen
