Description Wouter Hendrickx 2007-11-13 07:36:39 UTC 
Javadoc on Log4j appender class states that getName returns a `unique
identifier' for that appender. However, the implementation of AppenderSkeleton
just returns the contents of the field `name', and subclasses fail to call
setName() to assign a `unique identifier'

Committed change to Javadoc in rev 685331.
