Function object that can be used in Logger.setup Tries to determine which logging backend is available and configures it by using either defaults or a mode-dependent configuration file. To provide your own configuration, add either a log4j.props file or log4j.xml file to your classpath. If using logback, name it logback.xml If you want to provide a configuration file for a subset of your application or for a specific environment, Lift expects configuration files to be named in a manner relating to the context in which they are being used. The standard name format is:

   modeName.hostName.userName.filename.extension
 

with hostName and userName being optional, and modeName being one of 'test', 'staging', 'production', 'pilot', 'profile', or 'default. Thus, if you name your log4j config file 'default.log4j.xml' or 'default.log4j.props' it will be picked up correctly.
