Hey!
I'm just wondering, log4j knows something called categories to sort
the appenders.
Allthough I don't really know the difference between having
seperate loggers and having seperate categories, I would like to
know if log4net knows categories too and , if so, how they can be
configured using an xml-style configuration file.
Thanx,

I can't speak for log4net and you should ask on a log4net list
instead of a log4cxx list. Categories and Loggers are synonymous in
log4j. Category and Priority were used in log4j originally and
Logger and Level were used in JDK 1.4 logging. Logger and Level were
added in log4j to be consistent with JDK 1.4's nomenclature and
Category and Priority were deprecated. Basically, a logger or
category represents a topic (messages related to a specific class,
messages about database interactions, etc) and those topics are then
connected to appenders.
