Or -- why not have an "Initialize()" method in ONE of the DLL's.... then all of the others can call Initialize(), which should only init the Log4CXX once?

Your project should have an entry point, like some Initialize method, if you initalize the log4cxx there, the log4cxx should be initialized for all other dlls.

I already have a singleton class called "log4cxx_LogManager" to manage log4cxx in all the dlls. But I found that every dll will have a copy of that singleton class, so the singleton manager "log4cxx_LogManager" is not single in the mutiple dll enviromnents.If let the log4cxx_LogManager do the log4cxx initialized stuff, will initialize more than one times. Because log4cxx is compiled into a dll, it has only one copy in runtime. So I want my log4cxx_LogManager query if log4cxx is initialzed first, if not, initialize it. otherwise, use the logger directly. If log4cxx.dll has some initialize flag or api, the problem will simply solve. 2009/4/22 <renny.ko...@rubixinfotech.com> Why don't you simply create a singleton instance of a class that will "manage" log4cxx for you? Then you can just query the singleton to see if it is initialized or not... or even just call the "init()" method of the singleton in all your DLL's... so the init will only happen once. Renny Koshy President & CEO -------------------------------------------- Rubix Information Technologies, Inc. www.rubixinfotech.com Hi all, I am new to log4cxx and have a mutiple dll project to use log4cxx for some logging task. My project has 3 dll modules: a.dll, b.dll, c.dll , all dlls need logging. log4cxx needs some initialize code such like BasicConfigurator::configure() , load properties files, to prepare the logger. Because i use import lib to load the dlls, i don't know which dll will load first. So I want to determine if log4cxx is initialized when I call log4cxx in each dll. Is there any api can tell user is log4cxx initialized? Thanks.
