So by not requesting another instance of logger, do you mean I should use global variable in the main thread dnd and "extern" in worker threads?

A logger is should be thread-safe and can be used from multiple
threads. You do not need to request a logger for each thread. If you
do, you will just get multiple references to the same logger object.
The things you cannot do (without using socket listener) is to write
have two appenders write to the same file or have two instances of
log4cxx write to the same file.
