The formats are the same, but because of the answer to your third question, you 
may need two different files unless you add appenders
programmatically, or split your loggers such that C++ loggers go to one 
appender and Java loggers go to another.

If you are making the changes in Java, they will not have any affect on the 
log4cxx logging configuration. If you are making changes to the file, and
you have both your Java initialization and C++ initialization both set up to 
configure and watch, then both should see the file change and reconfigure
based on the new file settings.

>Finally can both Java and C++ loggers log to the same file?
Both Java and C++ will try to open the file with write permissions, so this 
will not work.
