Java Class Using Logger

package become.java9pro.logger;


import org.apache.log4j.Logger;

public class Java9ProLoggerTest {
    Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(Java9ProLoggerTest.class);
    String myName;
    public void setMyName(String myName) {
        logger.info("myName is "+ myName);
        this.myName = myName;
    }
}

Output will be put in logerTesterABD.log file with  "myName is Java9Pro"
