+<h4>Using the Log4j 1.2 Bridge</h4>
+You could use the <a href="http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/log4j-1.2-api/index.html">Log4j Bridge</a>
+if your application is written against the Log4j (1.x) API, but you want to use the Log4j 2.x runtime. 
+For using the bridge with Ant you have to add
+<ul>
+  <li>log4j-1.2-api-${log4j.version}.jar</li>
+  <li>log4j-api-${log4j.version}.jar</li>
+  <li>log4j-core-${log4j.version}.jar</li>
+  <li>log4j2.xml</li>
+</ul>
+to your classpath (e.g. via the <code>-lib</code> option).
+Translating the 1.x properties file into the 2.x xml syntax would result in
+<blockquote>
+<pre><code>&lt;?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot; encoding=&quot;UTF-8&quot;?&gt;
+&lt;Configuration status=&quot;WARN&quot;&gt;
+  &lt;Appenders&gt;

+      &lt;/PatternLayout&gt;

+  &lt;/Appenders&gt;

+    &lt;Root level=&quot;ERROR&quot;&gt;
+      &lt;AppenderRef ref=&quot;file&quot; level=&quot;DEBUG&quot;/&gt;
