Apache Log4j provides the interface that applications should code to and provides the adapter components required for implementers to create a logging implementation.

Bytecode (Java 1.4) for Apache Log4j is provided in a JAR file like log4j-1.2.17.jar.

Source Code files for Apache Log4j are provided in both binary packge like log4j-1.2.17.zip and source package like log4j-1.2.17-sources.zip. You can download them at Apache Log4j Website.

 * This policy rewrites events where the message of the
 * original event implementes java.util.Map.
 * All other events are passed through unmodified.
 * If the map contains a "message" entry, the value will be
 * used as the message for the rewritten event.  The rewritten
 * event will have a property set that is the combination of the
 * original property set and the other members of the message map.
 * If both the original property set and the message map
 * contain the same entry, the value from the message map
 * will overwrite the original property set.
