26  /**
27     The MDC class is similar to the {@link NDC} class except that it is
28     based on a map instead of a stack. It provides <em>mapped
29     diagnostic contexts</em>. A <em>Mapped Diagnostic Context</em>, or
30     MDC in short, is an instrument for distinguishing interleaved log
31     output from different sources. Log output is typically interleaved
32     when a server handles multiple clients near-simultaneously.
33  
34     <p><b><em>The MDC is managed on a per thread basis</em></b>. A
35     child thread automatically inherits a <em>copy</em> of the mapped
36     diagnostic context of its parent.
37    
38     <p>The MDC class requires JDK 1.2 or above. Under JDK 1.1 the MDC
39     will always return empty values but otherwise will not affect or
40     harm your application.
