Log4jConfigListener

Class Overview

Bootstrap listener for custom log4j initialization in a web environment. Delegates to Log4jWebConfigurer (see its javadoc for configuration details). WARNING: Assumes an expanded WAR file, both for loading the configuration file and for writing the log files. If you want to keep your WAR unexpanded or don't need application-specific log files within the WAR directory, don't use log4j setup within the application (thus, don't use Log4jConfigListener or Log4jConfigServlet). Instead, use a global, VM-wide log4j setup (for example, in JBoss) or JDK 1.4's java.util.logging (which is global too).

This listener should be registered before ContextLoaderListener in web.xml when using custom log4j initialization.
