NAME

       Log::Log4perl::Config::PropertyConfigurator - reads properties file

SYNOPSIS

           # This class is used internally by Log::Log4perl

           use Log::Log4perl::Config::PropertyConfigurator;

           my $conf = Log::Log4perl::Config::PropertyConfigurator->new();
           $conf->file("l4p.conf");
           $conf->parse(); # will die() on error

           my $value = $conf->value("log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.filename");

           if(defined $value) {
               printf("The appender's file name is $value\n");
           } else {
               printf("The appender's file name is not defined.\n");
           }

DESCRIPTION

       Initializes log4perl from a properties file, stuff like

           log4j.category.a.b.c.d = WARN, A1
           log4j.category.a.b = INFO, A1

       It also understands variable substitution, the following configuration is equivalent to
       the previous one:

           settings = WARN, A1
           log4j.category.a.b.c.d = ${settings}
           log4j.category.a.b = INFO, A1
