           Summary: joranconfigurator instantiating unreferenced appender
           Product: Log4j
           Version: 1.3alpha
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Configurator
        AssignedTo: log4j-dev@logging.apache.org
        ReportedBy: sdeboy@iname.com


I've noticed two issues with an xml-based configuration that works fine with the 1.2.x jars but does not work using log4j 1.3x alpha jars:

1. An appender that's defined but not referenced is still constructed and activateOptions is called (the IRC appender in the example below)

2. Using a 'category' instead of 'logger' node prevents the configuration from being loaded with the following error (using a 'logger' node works fine):
Reported error: "no applicable action for <category>, current pattern is [/configuration/category]" at line 27 column 24
Reported error: "no applicable action for <priority>, current pattern is [/configuration/category/priority]" at line 28 column 32
Reported error: "no applicable action for <appender-ref>, current pattern is [/configuration/category/appender-ref]" at line 29 column 30
Here is the configuration I was using:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration >
<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j='http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/'>
����� <appender name="IRC" class="irc.IRCAppender">
������� <param name="Port" value="6667"/>
������� <param name="remoteHost" value="irc.freenode.net"/>
������� <param name="nickName" value="sdeboy4"/>
������� <param name="userName" value="sdeboy4"/>
������� <param name="channel" value="#log4j"/>
������� <param name="password" value="sdeboy4"/>
������� <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
������������ <param name="ConversionPattern"
������� ������� ��� value="%p %c %m %throwable%n"/>
������� </layout>������ ��� 
����� </appender>
����� <appender name="STDOUT" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
���������� <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
������������ <param name="ConversionPattern"
������� ������� ��� value="%p %c %m %n"/>
���������� </layout>��� ��� 
����� </appender>
����� <category name="test">
������� <priority value="debug"/>
������� <appender-ref ref="STDOUT"/>
����� </category>
������� <root>
������� �� <priority value ="debug" />
������� </root>
�������
</log4j:configuration>
