Jason Gustafson commented on KAFKA-2077:
----------------------------------------

[~benoyantony], I think KafkaLog4jAppender was moved to a separate module in KAFKA-2132. Can you update your patch?

> KafkaLog4jAppender is the Log4j Appender to publish messages to Kafka. 
Currently , a topic name has to be passed as a parameter. In some use cases, it may be required to use a different topics for the same appender instance. 
So it may be beneficial to enable KafkaLog4jAppender to accept TopicClass which will provide a topic for a given message.
