/**
TTCC layout format consists of time, thread, category and nested
diagnostic context information, hence the name.
Each of the four fields can be individually enabled or
disabled. The time format depends on the DateFormat
used.
Here is an example TTCCLayout output with the
{@link org.apache.log4j.helpers.RelativeTimeDateFormat}.
176 [main] INFO org.apache.log4j.examples.Sort - Populating an array of 2 elements in reverse order.
225 [main] INFO org.apache.log4j.examples.SortAlgo - Entered the sort method.
262 [main] DEBUG org.apache.log4j.examples.SortAlgo.OUTER i=1 - Outer loop.
276 [main] DEBUG org.apache.log4j.examples.SortAlgo.SWAP i=1 j=0 - Swapping intArray[0] = 1 and intArray[1] = 0
290 [main] DEBUG org.apache.log4j.examples.SortAlgo.OUTER i=0 - Outer loop.
304 [main] INFO org.apache.log4j.examples.SortAlgo.DUMP - Dump of interger array:
317 [main] INFO org.apache.log4j.examples.SortAlgo.DUMP - Element [0] = 0
331 [main] INFO org.apache.log4j.examples.SortAlgo.DUMP - Element [1] = 1
343 [main] INFO org.apache.log4j.examples.Sort - The next log statement should be an error message.
346 [main] ERROR org.apache.log4j.examples.SortAlgo.DUMP - Tried to dump an uninitialized array.
at org.apache.log4j.examples.SortAlgo.dump(SortAlgo.java:58)
at org.apache.log4j.examples.Sort.main(Sort.java:64)
467 [main] INFO org.apache.log4j.examples.Sort - Exiting main method.
The first field is the number of milliseconds elapsed since the
start of the program. The second field is the thread outputting the
log statement. The third field is the level, the fourth field is
the category to which the statement belongs.
The fifth field (just before the '-') is the nested diagnostic
context. Note the nested diagnostic context may be empty as in the
first two statements. The text after the '-' is the message of the
statement.
WARNING Do not use the same TTCCLayout instance from
within different appenders. The TTCCLayout is not thread safe when
used in his way. However, it is perfectly safe to use a TTCCLayout
instance from just one appender.
{@link PatternLayout} offers a much more flexible alternative.
