/**
// Class JDBCAppender, writes messages into a database

// The JDBCAppender is configurable at runtime in two alternatives :
// 1. Configuration-file
//    Define the options in a file and call a PropertyConfigurator.configure(file)-method.
// 2. method JDBCAppender::setOption(JDBCAppender.xxx_OPTION, String value)

// The sequence of some options is important :
// 1. Connector-option OR/AND Database-options
//    Any database connection is required !
// 2. (Table-option AND Columns-option) OR SQL-option
//		Any statement is required !
// 3. All other options can be set at any time...
//    The other options are optional and have a default initialization, which can be custumized.

// All available options are defined as static String-constants in JDBCAppender named xxx_OPTION.

// Here is a description of all available options :
// 1. Database-options to connect to the database
//    - URL_OPTION			: a database url of the form jdbc:subprotocol:subname
//    - USERNAME_OPTION		: the database user on whose behalf the connection is being made
//    - PASSWORD_OPTION		: the user's password
//
// 2. Connector-option to specify your own JDBCConnectionHandler
//    - CONNECTOR_OPTION	: a classname which is implementing the JDBCConnectionHandler-interface
//    This interface is used to get a customized connection.
//    If in addition the database-options are given, these options will be used
//    for invocation of the JDBCConnectionHandler-interface to get a connection.
//    Else if no database-options are given, the JDBCConnectionHandler-interface is called without these options.
//
// 3. SQL-option to specify a static sql-statement which will be performed with every occuring message-event
//    - SQL_OPTION			: a sql-statement which will be used to write to the database
//    If you give this option, the table-option and columns-option will be ignored !
//    Use the variable @MSG@ on that location in the statement, which has to be dynamically replaced by the message.
//
// 4. Table-option to specify one table contained by the database
//    - TABLE_OPTION			: the table in which the logging will be done
//
// 5. Columns-option to describe the important columns of the table (Not nullable columns are mandatory to describe!)
//    - COLUMNS_OPTION		: a formatted list of column-descriptions
//    Each column description consists of
//       - the name of the column (required)
//			- a logtype which is a static constant of class LogType (required)
//       - and a value which depends by the LogType (optional/required, depending by logtype)
//    Here is a description of the available logtypes of class LogType :
//       o MSG			= a value will be ignored, the column will get the message. (One columns need to be of this type!)
//       o STATIC		= the value will be filled into the column with every logged message. (Ensure that the type of value can be casted into the sql-type of the column!)
//       o ID			= value must be a classname, which implements the JDBCIDHandler-interface.
//       o TIMESTAMP	= a value will be ignored, the column will be filled with a actually timestamp with every logged message.
//       o EMPTY		= a value will be ignored, the column will be ignored when writing to the database (Ensure to fill not nullable columns by a database trigger!)
//    If there are more than one column to describe, the columns must be separated by a TAB-delimiter ('	') !
//    The arguments of a column-description must be separated by the delimiter '~' !
//		(Example :  name1~logtype1~value1	name2~logtype2~value2...)
//
// 6. Layout-options to define the layout of the messages (optional)
//    - the layout wont be set by a xxx_OPTION
//    Configuration-file			: see at the following configuration-file example
//    JDBCAppender::setOption()	: see at the following code example
//    The default is a layout of class org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout with ConversionPattern=%m
//
// 7. Buffer-option to define the size of the message-event-buffer (optional)
//    - BUFFER_OPTION		: define how many messages will be buffered until they will be updated to the database.
//    The default is a update on every message (buffer=1=no buffer).
//
// 8. Commit-option to define a auto-commitment
//    - COMMIT_OPTION		: define whether updated messages should be committed to the database (Y) or not (N).
//    The default is a commit on every buffer-flush.


// Here is a Configuration-file example, which can be used with the PropertyConfigurator :
//
// Declare a appender variable named JDBC
log4j.rootCategory=JDBC

// JDBC is a class of JDBCAppender, which writes messages into a database
log4j.appender.JDBC=JDBCAppender

// 1. Database-options to connect to the database
log4j.appender.JDBC.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(COMMUNITY=tcp.world)(PROTOCOL=TCP)(Host=LENZI)(Port=1521))(ADDRESS=(COMMUNITY=tcp.world)(PROTOCOL=TCP)(Host=LENZI)(Port=1526)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=LENZI)))
log4j.appender.JDBC.username=mex_pr_dev60
log4j.appender.JDBC.password=mex_pr_dev60

// 2. Connector-option to specify your own JDBCConnectionHandler
log4j.appender.JDBC.connector=MyConnectionHandler

// 3. SQL-option to specify a static sql-statement which will be performed with every occuring message-event
log4j.appender.JDBC.sql=INSERT INTO LOGTEST (id, msg, created_on, created_by) VALUES (1, @MSG@, sysdate, 'me')

// 4. Table-option to specify one table contained by the database
log4j.appender.JDBC.table=logtest

// 5. Columns-option to describe the important columns of the table (Not nullable columns are mandatory to describe!)
log4j.appender.JDBC.columns=id_seq~EMPTY	id~ID~MyIDHandler	msg~MSG	created_on~TIMESTAMP	created_by~STATIC~Thomas Fenner (t.fenner@klopotek.de)

// 6. Layout-options to define the layout of the messages (optional)
log4j.appender.JDBC.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.JDBC.layout.ConversionPattern=%m

// 7. Buffer-option to define the size of the message-event-buffer (optional)
log4j.appender.JDBC.buffer=1

// 8. Commit-option to define a auto-commitment
log4j.appender.JDBC.commit=Y
