RE: I degrade some softwares on my computer, and now I can build log4cxx on Solaris 9 x86 now. But...

I guess it has to do with the static DEBUG_KEY as explained by carnold.

BTW, I have a question for you as well:
I have downgraded my automake and libtool but still get similar errors to the 
ones you had
when running autogen.sh.
Have you downgraded your autoconf and m4 as well?
I am using
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.59, and
GNU m4 1.4.1
which are I think the original versions you used.

The errors I receive are attached below:

aclocal: configure.in: 32: macro `AM_PROG_LIBTOOL' not found in library
autoheader: error: AC_CONFIG_HEADERS not found in configure.in
configure.in:21: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONFIG_HEADER
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.in:27: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
configure.in:32: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PROG_LIBTOOL
configure.in:86: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONDITIONAL
configure.in:27: no proper implementation of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE was found,
configure.in:27: probably because aclocal.m4 is missing...
configure.in:27: You should run aclocal to create this file, then
configure.in:27: run automake again.

/home/simobar/sun4u/build/pkgs/automake-1.6.3/share/automake-1.6/am/lang-compile.am:

...

PS - The script does complete, but then running "configure" fails.
(i.e. ./configure: line 1439: syntax error near unexpected token 
`AM_CONFIG_HEADER(include/log4cxx/config_auto.h)'
./configure: line 1439: `AM_CONFIG_HEADER(include/log4cxx/config_auto.h)')

Insights (from anyone) would be most welcome,
Thanks,
Barak

Thanks to Simon. Your suggestion is very reasonable and enlighten me about
the factor ignored by me.
I try to simplified my program like the following, but I still get the same
output information and the program crash at the same line with the same
backtrace:

#include <log4cxx/logger.h>
#include <log4cxx/basicconfigurator.h>
#include <log4cxx/helpers/exception.h>
#include <log4cxx/propertyconfigurator.h>
#include <log4cxx/xml/domconfigurator.h>
#include <log4cxx/helpers/loglog.h>

using namespace log4cxx;
using namespace log4cxx::helpers;
using namespace log4cxx::xml;

class Bar
{
 log4cxx::LoggerPtr logger;

public:
 Bar();
 void doIt();
};

Bar::Bar()
{
 logger = Logger::getLogger(_T("MyApp"));
}

void Bar::doIt()
{
 logger->debug(_T("Did it again!"));
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
 int result = EXIT_SUCCESS;

 try
 {
  DOMConfigurator::configure(argv[1]);

  Bar bar;
  bar.doIt();
 }
 catch(Exception&)
 {
  result = EXIT_FAILURE;
 }

 return result;
}

The following is the backtrace information:

Hi,
In my experience, the best way currently to avoid the problem you are having
is do lazy initialisation
when you use log4cxx statics to initialise your own statics/globals.
For instance, when I needed to use a constant LevelPtr (e.g. Level::ERROR),
I used instead the log4cxx Level enums (i.e. Level::ERROR_INT)
and converted it to the LevelPtr static when actually using the level inside
my class method. At that stage the Level statics are already initialised.

This is also relevant to your lines:
LoggerPtr logger = Logger::getLogger(_T("MyApp")); and
LoggerPtr Bar::logger = Logger::getLogger(_T("MyApp"));

For the second line, I suggest trying instead:
LoggerPtr Bar::logger; (setting to zero if possible)
and in the ctor initing it:
logger = Logger::getLogger(_T("MyApp"));

For the first line, you can do the same (without the ctor part), but add a
global access GetLogger() method
to first init the logger if not initialised yet, and then return it.
(assuming LoggerPtr can be
assigned a zero or some default value which can be checked)

Hope this helps,
Cheers,
Barak

PS - I am now going to try downgrading my automake and libtool to the
versions working
for you! Maybe at last autogen.sh will actually work for me.
