    32    The JDBCAppender provides for sending log events to a database.
    33
    34   <p><b><font color="#FF2222">WARNING: This version of JDBCAppender
    35   is very likely to be completely replaced in the future. Moreoever,
    36   it does not log exceptions</font></b>.
    37
    38    <p>Each append call adds to an <code>ArrayList</code> buffer.  When
    39    the buffer is filled each log event is placed in a sql statement
    40    (configurable) and executed.
    41
    42    <b>BufferSize</b>, <b>db URL</b>, <b>User</b>, & <b>Password</b> are
    43    configurable options in the standard log4j ways.
    44
    45    <p>The <code>setSql(String sql)</code> sets the SQL statement to be
    46    used for logging -- this statement is sent to a
    47    <code>PatternLayout</code> (either created automaticly by the
    48    appender or added by the user).  Therefore by default all the
    49    conversion patterns in <code>PatternLayout</code> can be used
    50    inside of the statement.  (see the test cases for examples)
    51
    52    <p>Overriding the {@link #getLogStatement} method allows more
    53    explicit control of the statement used for logging.
    54
    55    <p>For use as a base class:
    56
    57      <ul>
    58
    59      <li>Override <code>getConnection()</code> to pass any connection
    60      you want.  Typically this is used to enable application wide
    61      connection pooling.
    62
    63       <li>Override <code>closeConnection(Connection con)</code> -- if
    64       you override getConnection make sure to implement
    65       <code>closeConnection</code> to handle the connection you
    66       generated.  Typically this would return the connection to the
    67       pool it came from.
    68
    69       <li>Override <code>getLogStatement(LoggingEvent event)</code> to
    70       produce specialized or dynamic statements. The default uses the
    71       sql option value.
    72
    73      </ul>
