I don't think the log4j appender supports patterns :(

Hello ,
I am trying to use KafkaLog4jAppender to write to kafka and also a file
appender to write to a file. The conversion pattern works for the file, but
for the kafka appender it is not working
The output of the file appender is *2014-09-19T22:30:14.781Z INFO
com.test.poc.StartProgram Message1*But the Kafka appender has output as
*Message1*
