http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25107 OptionConverter.getSystemProperty() does not allow substitution Summary: OptionConverter.getSystemProperty() does not allow substitution Product: Log4j Version: 1.2 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Configurator AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] When trying to start a default log4j session with the following property: log4j.configuration=file://${was.install.root}/properties/log4j.xml the ${was.install.root} is not substituted. Looking in OptionConverter.getSystemProperty(), I see that no substitution occurs. How about modifying the method as follows: public static String getSystemProperty(String key, String def) { try { return substVars(System.getProperty(key, def), null); } catch (Throwable e) { // MS-Java throws com.ms.security.SecurityExceptionEx LogLog.debug("Was not allowed to read system property \"" + key + "\"."); return def; } } which will allow for great flexibility (especially when using log4j in a WAS environment).
