Create a variable called ${basedir.log4j}
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-3199
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3199
             Project: Maven 2
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Logging, POM, POM::Encoding, Profiles
    Affects Versions: 2.0.7
            Reporter: Andrew J. Leer


Create a variable that will be usable within a log4j.xml file for specifying 
the location of the file.

In windows specifying the path using ${basedir} currently results in a variable 
like this:

${basedir}=C:\dev\workspace\project

log4j requires that you specify the path to the log file like so (even under 
windows):

        <appender name="FILE_APPENDER"
                class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender">

                <param name="File" value="c:/dev/workspace/project/file.log" />

                <param name="Append" value="true" />
                 <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
                        <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d [%t] %-5p 
[[[[%c]]]] (((%F:%L))) ___%C___ - %m%n"/>
                </layout>
        </appender>

So the ${basedir.log4j} variable needs to equate to:

${basedir.log4j}=c:/dev/workspace/project/file.log
