/**
* <p>A simple logging interface abstracting logging APIs. In order to be
* instantiated successfully by {@link LogFactory}, classes that implement
* this interface must have a constructor that takes a single String
* parameter representing the "name" of this Log.</p>
*
* <p> The six logging levels used by <code>Log</code> are (in order):
* <ol>
* <li>trace (the least serious)</li>
* <li>debug</li>
* <li>info</li>
* <li>warn</li>
* <li>error</li>
* <li>fatal (the most serious)</li>
* </ol>
* The mapping of these log levels to the concepts used by the underlying
* logging system is implementation dependent.
* The implemention should ensure, though, that this ordering behaves
* as expected.</p>
*
* <p>Performance is often a logging concern.
* By examining the appropriate property,
* a component can avoid expensive operations (producing information
* to be logged).</p>
*
* <p> For example,
* <code><pre>
* if (log.isDebugEnabled()) {
* ... do something expensive ...
* log.debug(theResult);
* }
* </pre></code>
* </p>
*
* <p>Configuration of the underlying logging system will generally be done
* external to the Logging APIs, through whatever mechanism is supported by
* that system.</p>
