.PP 
Log4c stream appender interface\&. 

The stream appender uses a file handle \fCFILE*\fP for logging\&. The appender's name is used as the file name which will be opened at first log\&. An appender can also be associated to an opened file handle using the log4c_appender_set_udata() method to update the appender user data field\&. In this last case, the appender name has no meaning\&. 2 default stream appenders are defined: \fC'stdout'\fP and \fC'stderr'\fP\&.
.PP
The following examples shows how to define and use stream appenders\&.
