into a single log file from multiple processes.
- Added Mapped Diagnostic Context (MDC) and associated converter (%X).
- Added alternative thread identification (%T) converter to pattern layout.
- Added function name converter (%M).
- Added wchar_t <-> char conversion implementations based on standard
C locale functions and based on iconv().

where it is possible.
- Logging macros now accept both logger name as string and Logger
instance as their first parameter.
Note that the 2-clause-bsd is not identical. (I know there are
hundreds of different BSD licenses -- we should not track them all.)
The DESCRiption follows:
Log4cplus provides a port of the log4j logging framework for C++.
Log4cplus is a featureful log facility with various filters, run-time
re-configurations, and Wide Character (UNICODE) support. It provides
log levels, hierarchal loggers, NDC (Nested Diagnostic Context),
and log rotation support. It can log to the console, files, syslog,
Windows events, or via sockets.
