Sigh, this has nothing to do with it. Reading the Log4j1 docs will clarify
that for you, I'm not sure how you got on to level labels...
Customizing the labels on levels is already supported.
The idea here is that instead of hard coding message like this:
warn("This is a message in English about {} and {}", foo, bar):
you say:
warn("MESSAGE_KEY", foo, bar);
then in your resource bundle (a .properties file), you have:
MESSAGE_KEY = "This is a message in English about {} and {}"
Then you can have a prop file for each language you want:
MESSAGE_KEY = Zut alors! {} et {}
