[xmlblaster-devel] Redirect LogChannel for log4j

[Uwe Renzland <uwe at renzland.de>]

Hi xmlBlaster Developer, 

I am developing a application that uses Log4J. 
The xmlBlaster client classes are used in this project. 

Now xml Blaster has its own logging. I would like, that the xmlblaster
loggings would appear in my log4j files. 
The xmlBlaster (jutils) LogChannel has a super feature. I can define a
callback Interface, so all log calls can be caught and manipulated, e.g.
like this: 

public class c implements  org.jutils.log.LogableDevice {
    /**
    * Event fired by LogChannel.java through interface LogableDevice.
    * <p />
    * Log output into our Category <br />
    */
   public void log(int level, String source, String str)
   {
     final Category log = 
org.apache.log4j.Category.getInstance("org.xmlblaster");

     StringBuffer logTxt = new StringBuffer();
     logTxt.append("[");
     logTxt.append(source);
     logTxt.append("] ");
     logTxt.append(str);
     switch (level) {
     case LogChannel.LOG_CALL:
     case LogChannel.LOG_DUMP:
     case LogChannel.LOG_TIME: 
     case LogChannel.LOG_TRACE: 
       if (log.isDebugEnabled())
	 log.debug(logTxt);
       break; 
     case LogChannel.LOG_ERROR: 
       log.error(logTxt);
       break; 
     case LogChannel.LOG_INFO: 
       log.info(logTxt);
       break; 
     case LogChannel.LOG_WARN: 
       log.warn(logTxt);
       break; 
     default:
       log.info(logTxt);
       break; 
     };
   } 
}

Now I have a problem with initializing. I have to get all LogChannels,
that are used by Global, without knowing the ids. 
But there exists no appropriate method. 
If I would have it, e.g. Enumeration Global.getLogs(), I could
initialize all Channels by adding my Interceptor. 

Perhaps you can add it. 

Thank you and many greetings 

Uwe
