Newbie Usage Question: Compile Error 'getError is not a member of log4cxx::Level'

[Beni Bilme]

I am trying to rebuild an application on Ubuntu Linux (Gutsy) which I
developed on Windows XP with VS 2003 C++ compiler some time ago. It is
Qt4 application. I am using log4cxx as well. To ease the usage, once I
posted a question to this forum and a smart fellow sent me his log.h
header file which I provided below.

I receive compile errors both at windows and at linux from the locations
that I use log_xxxx such as log_debug, log_error etc stating that
‘getError’ is not a member of ‘log4cxx::Level’. These are simple macros
as you would see below to save typing and space at the code.

I have used this code before. I have not changed anything in the code.
But I have lost the development environment in windows xp. I rebuild
libraries etc. In Ubuntu, I have just installed the distribution
libraries and tried the compile.

I do not have much knowledge about log4cxx and do not use its many
features. I just use the facilities in this header file provided below.

Note: For each class, I have a data member   'static LoggerPtr logger'
and I initialize it in the correponding cpp file as 'LoggerPtr
Address::logger(Logger::getLogger("ClassName"));'

In the class, I use it like 'log_error("Some error message");'

Any help much appreciated.
