Separate properties file for each category

["Daly, Michael" <mi...@merck.com>]

Is there a way to have a properties file defined for each category? I would
like each application within a JVM to be able to configure their application
logging without needing one giant log4j.properties file that every app must
edit (and potentially cause problems for other apps).

Is this possible?

Looking at the Javadocs, it looks like in the PropertyConfigurator there is
a doConfigure(Properties properties, Hierarchy hierarchy) method where it
appears I can assign a set of properties to a hierarchy. Am I on the right
track looking at this?
