Cassandra appender for Log4j.

Motivation and usage.

----------------------

Log4j is widely used as logging tool. A Cassandra implementation

used in Asynchronous way as well as having a local FileAppender

would facilitate offline log exploration and analysis.

An Asynchronous appender wrapping CassandraAppender is encourage

to avoid slowing down the applicaction. 

Adding appender to log4j.properties

----------------------

Add this appender to log4j.properties. See log4j-example.properties.

    # Cassandra Appender

    log4j.appender.CASS=com.datastax.logging.appender.CassandraAppender

    

    # Optional settings. The current values are the default ones

    #log4j.appender.CASS.hosts = 127.0.0.1

    #log4j.appender.CASS.port = 9160

    #log4j.appender.CASS.keyspaceName = "Logging"

    #log4j.appender.CASS.columnFamily = "log_entries"

    #log4j.appender.CASS.replicationFactor = 1

    #log4j.appender.CASS.consistencyLevelWrite = "ONE"

    #log4j.appender.CASS.maxBufferedRows = 1
