               throws SyslogInitException

  <Logger
    name="LoggerName"
    class="LoggerClassName"
  >

    <!-- Logger subclass directives -->

    <Policy class="LogPolicyClass" >
      <!-- Policy directives -->
    </Policy>

    <Format class="LogFormatClass" >
      <!-- Formatter directives -->
    </Format>

  </Logger>
  

Attributes:

name	value	required
name	Symbolic name for the logger.	no
class	Full class name of the logger to load. Must be a class that implements the com.protomatter.syslog.Syslogger interface.	yes

If the logger is a subclass of this class (BasicLogger), then the optional <Policy> and <Format> elements are processed. If each is present, it is passed to the configure() method of the LogPolicy or SyslogTextFormatter object specified so they can configure themselves. It is assumed that each of those elements contains other configuration information that the individual policy or format class would understand.
