It would be the same as doing the "ConfigureAndWatch" where log4j rereads changes in config files (i have not used it this way, but it seems klunky) I'd rather have an object in memory (singleton like) where i could just say now log this package on DEBUG or switch it to this Appender. It seems it might be able to be done using JMX (in log4j 1.2) but at the bottom of the javadoc it says "This package lets you manage log4j settings using JMX. It is unfortunately not of production quality." - not sure what that means :(
I desire a programatic means of changing the properties on the fly without parsing a config file and waiting for a reload (unknown amount of time) does this seam reasonable? -jason On Fri, 3 May 2002, Mark Womack wrote: > Jason, > > Can you give a specific example of how this would work?
