Trace level in log4cxx
The "Short users guide to log4xx"
(http://logging.apache.org/log4cxx/manual/Introduction.html) describes
the available levels: "debug, info, warn, error, and fatal".
The similar log4j document
(http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs/manual.html) describes these, but
also an additional one: "trace".
Is "trace" in log4j but not log4cxx? What would be the reason?

Trace was added to log4j after log4cxx was originally developed.
There is an open bug LOGCXX-86 to add the trace level to log4cxx (the
hard part is porting the test cases over). The existing web content
will eventually be replaced with Maven generated content. I've just
modified the log4j manual to account for log4cxx differences so the doc
on the staged site (http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/site/
trunk/docs/log4cxx/manual.html) should document the trace level, but it
doesn't reflect the actual state of the code at the moment.
