Hi,

I am trying to get a handle on Log4J and I have three problems/questions I am trying 
to get
around.

First I am trying to use log4j with a web app that is distributed in a standard war 
file. I want
to be able to distribute this file, along with the logging class and not worry about 
configuring
log4j.

In my code I have PropertyConfigurator.configure("path to myLog.properties");

As a result I have to set this path every time I distribute the war file.
Is it possible to set this up so that the class file looks to where it has been 
installed and
looks for myLog.properties there. This way I don't have to worry about setting to
myLog.properties.

Second, I have a rolling file set in myLog.properties via:
log4j.appender.R.File="/myRollingLog.log"

How can I do the same as in step one, have this file default to where the war file was 
installed?

Third, I have the following code in each of my class files:
Category cat=Category.getinstance(myclass.class.getName());
How can I have the above through reflection find its own class name and therefore I 
would have a
default statement? Something like
Category cat=Category.getInstance("Find_What_Class_This_Is).class.getName())?

Thanks for any help.

Alex
