Log4j-配置信息详解

log4j的初始化

  log4j的初始化方式如下：

private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger(Log4jTest.class);

  该Logger类是继承自Category类，实现的是AppenderAttachable接口，如下：

  而Category类又继承自java.lang.Object，如下就是官方文档中的介绍：

java.lang.Object
  -- extended by org.apache.log4j.Category
      -- extended by org.apache.log4j.Logger

  而在Log4j初始化时，是在Logger类中完成对log4j的获取，如下：

    public static Logger getLogger(Class clazz) {
        return LogManager.getLogger(clazz.getName());
    }

  在LogManager中完成对log4j静态配置资源的加载，该加载方式是通过静态代码块来实现的，如下：

static {
        Hierarchy h = new Hierarchy(new RootLogger(Level.DEBUG));
        repositorySelector = new DefaultRepositorySelector(h);
        String override = OptionConverter.getSystemProperty("log4j.defaultInitOverride", (String)null);
        if (override != null && !"false".equalsIgnoreCase(override)) {
            LogLog.debug("Default initialization of overridden by log4j.defaultInitOverrideproperty.");
        } else {
            String configurationOptionStr = OptionConverter.getSystemProperty("log4j.configuration", (String)null);
            String configuratorClassName = OptionConverter.getSystemProperty("log4j.configuratorClass", (String)null);
            URL url = null;
            if (configurationOptionStr == null) {
                url = Loader.getResource("log4j.xml");
                if (url == null) {
                    url = Loader.getResource("log4j.properties");
                }
            } else {
                try {
                    url = new URL(configurationOptionStr);
                } catch (MalformedURLException var7) {
                    url = Loader.getResource(configurationOptionStr);
                }
            }

            if (url != null) {
