/**
    Use DatagramStringAppender to send log messages to a remote daemon
    which accepts Datagram (UDP) messages.
    

    The benefits of UDP are that the client is guarunteed not to
    slow down if the network or remote log daemon is slow, and that
    no permanent TCP connection between client and server exists.
    

    The disadvantages are that log messages can be lost if the network
    or remote daemon are under excessive load.
    

    This class builts the final message string before sending
    the UDP packet, hence the "string" component in the class name. This
    means that the receiving application can be written in any language.
    The data is transmitted in whatever encoding is specified in the
    configuration file; this may be an 8-bit encoding (eg ISO-8859-1, also
    known as LATIN-1) or a larger encoding, eg UTF-16.
    

    An alternative to building the message string within DatagramStringAppender
    would be to serialize & send the complete logging event object (perhaps
    such a class could be called a DatagramSerialAppender??). The
    receiving end could then be configured with appropriate Layout objects
    to generate the actual logged messages. This would ensure that the
    logging of messages from different sources is done in a consistent
    format, and give a central place to configure that format. It would ensure
    (by transmitting messages as unicode) that the receiving end could control
    the encoding in which the output is generated. It also would possibly allow
    he receiving end to use the full log4j flexibility to pass the event to
    different appenders at the receiving end, as the category information is
    retained, etc. However, this does require that the receiving end is in
    java, and that all clients of the logging daemon are java applications.
    In contrast, this DatagramStringAppender can send mesages to a log daemon
    that accepts messages from a variety of sources.
