PropertyConfigurator.doConfigure(URL url, Hierarchy hierarchy), H ierarchy

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

Would someone be able to provide an explanation how the
PropertyConfigurator.doConfigure(String configFileName, Hierarchy hierarchy)
is intended to be used? I have tried several test classes that use this and
I keep getting the following error messages:

log4j:ERROR No appenders could be found for category (app1).
log4j:ERROR Please initialize the log4j system properly.

Here is my properties file:

log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG

log4j.category.app1=DEBUG, R
log4j.additivity.app1=false

log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File=app1system.log

log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=1000KB
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=5

log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%c %d %-5p - %m%n

Also, would someone be able to explain how the Hierarchy class is intended
to be used? From the Javadoc, there is a statement "The casual user should
not have to deal with this class directly. In fact, up until version 0.9.0,
this class had default package access. However, if you are in an environment
where multiple applications run in the same VM, then read on." After reading
through the Javadoc, I did not see any references to anything related to
multiple applications running in the same VM.
