    27   TTCC layout format consists of time, thread, category and nested
    28   diagnostic context information, hence the name.
    29
    30   <p>Each of the four fields can be individually enabled or
    31   disabled. The time format depends on the <code>DateFormat</code>
    32   used.
    33
    34   <p>Here is an example TTCCLayout output with the
    35   {@link org.apache.log4j.helpers.RelativeTimeDateFormat}.

    51  </pre>
    52
    53    <p>The first field is the number of milliseconds elapsed since the
    54    start of the program. The second field is the thread outputting the
    55    log statement. The third field is the level, the fourth field is
    56    the category to which the statement belongs.
    57
    58    <p>The fifth field (just before the '-') is the nested diagnostic
    59    context.  Note the nested diagnostic context may be empty as in the
    60    first two statements. The text after the '-' is the message of the
    61    statement.
    62
    63    <p><b>WARNING</b> Do not use the same TTCCLayout instance from
    64    within different appenders. The TTCCLayout is not thread safe when
    65    used in his way. However, it is perfectly safe to use a TTCCLayout
    66    instance from just one appender.
    67
    68    <p>{@link PatternLayout} offers a much more flexible alternative.
