You might want to consider logback which handles this task very nicely.

Hi! I've got a question regarding log4j and propagating errors in a program flow. I'm currently developing test case scripts using Rational Functional Tester which has a poor logging system and I've looked into using log4j instead. I can't find a way to make log4j propagate errors to a "higher instance". What I would like is for errors found in the "middle" of the program flow to propagate to the last stage of the process. An example flow where an error in a subscript propagates to end. Script 1 Subscript 1:1 OK! Subscript 1:2 ERROR! Subscript 1:3 OK! Script 1 Finished with ERROR in Subscript 1:2. Would it be good practice to use some kind of hierarchy in which the errors are sent to a special logger which in turn connects to the top-level-logger and outputs at the end of the flow? I'll appreciate any help or tips I can get in this matter!
