NAME
    Log::Log4perl::JavaMap - maps java log4j appenders to Log::Dispatch
    classes

SYNOPSIS
         ###############################
         log4j.appender.FileAppndr1        = org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
         log4j.appender.FileAppndr1.File   = /var/log/onetime.log
         log4j.appender.FileAppndr1.Append = false

         log4j.appender.FileAppndr1.layout = org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
         log4j.appender.FileAppndr1.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n

DESCRIPTION
    If somebody wants to create an appender called
    "org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender", we want to translate it to
    Log::Dispatch::Screen, and then translate the log4j options into
    Log::Dispatch parameters..

  What's Implemented
    (Note that you can always use the Log::Dispatch::* module. By
    'implemented' I mean having a translation class that translates log4j
    options into the Log::Dispatch options so you can use log4j rather than
    log4perl syntax in your config file.)

    Here's the list of appenders I see on the current (6/2002) log4j site.

    These are implemented

        ConsoleAppender     - Log::Dispatch::Screen
        FileAppender        - Log::Dispatch::File
        RollingFileAppender - Log::Dispatch::FileRotate (by Mark Pfeiffer)
        JDBCAppender        - Log::Log4perl::Appender::DBI
        SyslogAppender      - Log::Dispatch::Syslog
        NTEventLogAppender  - Log::Dispatch::Win32EventLog

    These should/will/might be implemented

        DailyRollingFileAppender -
        SMTPAppender     - Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSender

    These might be implemented but they don't have corresponding classes in
    Log::Dispatch (yet):

        NullAppender
        TelnetAppender

    These might be simulated

        LF5Appender - use Tk?
        ExternallyRolledFileAppender - catch a HUP instead?

    These will probably not be implemented

        AsyncAppender
        JMSAppender
        SocketAppender - (ships a serialized LoggingEvent to the server side)
        SocketHubAppender

ROLL YOUR OWN
    Let's say you've in a mixed Java/Perl environment and you've come up
    with some custom Java appender with behavior you want to use in both
    worlds, "myorg.customAppender". You write a Perl appender with the same
    behavior "Myorg::CustomAppender". You want to use one config file across
    both applications, so the config file will have to say
    'myorg.customAppender'. But the mapping from "myorg.customAppender" to
    "Myorg::CustomAppender" isn't in this JavaMap class, so what do you do?

    In your Perl code, before you call Log::Log4perl::init(), do this:

        $Log::Log4perl::JavaMap::user_defined{'myorg.customAppender'} =
            'Myorg::CustomAppender';

    and you can use 'myorg.customAppender' in your config file with
    impunity.
