Re: Convert to array from XML

We are using log4php quite extensively in our application. We began by 
using the XML config file but found that too much of a hassle as we 
end up with lots of them. The array method of configuring loggers 
seems much more efficient but I am having difficulty converting our 
xml file to the array. I am sadly not able to find a good enough 
example to use as a template. Can someone please help me by converting 
this XML into an array?

<log4php:configuration xmlns:log4php="http://logging.apache.org/log4php/";>

<appender name="myAppender" class="LoggerAppenderDailyFile">

<layout class="LoggerLayoutTTCC" />

<param name="datePattern" value="Y-m-d" />

<param name="file" 
value="/var/www/virtual/derver.net/michael/htdocs/log/michaeldev%s.log" />

</appender>

<appender name="myAppender" class="LoggerAppenderEcho">

<layout class="LoggerLayoutTTCC" />

</appender>

<root>

<level value="WARN" />

<appender_ref ref="myAppender" />

</root>

</log4php:configuration>

Also, I have had trouble (in the past) with relative paths in the XML, 
I assume the array method won't have these issues?

Hey Michael,

here's your XML as array:

array(
    'appenders' => array(
        'myAppender'=>array(
            'class'=> 'LoggerAppenderDailyFile',
            'layout'=> array(
                'class'=>'LoggerLayoutTTCC'
            ),
            'params'=>array(
                'datePattern'=>'Y-m-d',
                
'file'=>'/var/www/virtual/derver.net/michael/htdocs/log/michaeldev%s.log'
            )
        ),
        'myAppender'=>array(
            'class'=> 'LoggerAppenderEcho',
            'layout'=> array(
                'class'=>'LoggerLayoutTTCC'
            )
        )
    ),
    'rootLogger'=> array(
        'level'=>'WARN',
        'appenders'=>array('myAppender')
    )
)

The params-option in the documentation (array as config) is missing.
