Hi all,
I would like to make a contribution to DOMConfiguration class by overloading
the configureAndWatch method so it can accept a LoggerRepository as an
argument. This is very useful when you have EARs with different log4j
configuration files and want to configure them dynamically.
DOMConfigurator.java:
...
/**
* ....
* @param repository
* A logger repository.
*/
static public void configureAndWatch(String configFilename, long delay,
LoggerRepository repository) {
XMLWatchdog xdog = new XMLWatchdog(configFilename, repository);
xdog.setDelay(delay);
xdog.start();
}
...
class XMLWatchdog extends FileWatchdog {
private LoggerRepository repository = null;
XMLWatchdog(String filename) {
super(filename);
}
XMLWatchdog(String filename, LoggerRepository repository) {
super(filename);
this.repository = repository;
}
/**
Call [EMAIL PROTECTED] PropertyConfigurator#configure(String)} with the
<code>filename</code> to reconfigure log4j. */
public
void doOnChange() {
if (repository == null) {
new DOMConfigurator().doConfigure(filename,
LogManager.getLoggerRepository());
} else {
new DOMConfigurator().doConfigure(filename, repository);
}
}
}
Please let me know your comments.
Thanks,
Dario Oliveros

Subject: Contribution to DOMConfigurator
Hi there,
I would like to make a contribution to log4j, but I am not sure how to proceed.
Basically I would like to overload the configureAndWatch method from
DOMConfigurator to accept a new argument: LoggerRepository.
This issue came up when I decided to have two different configuration files for
two different scoped EARs, which one of them having its own repository. At
first I could get it working, but I was not able to configure their respective
config files dynamically through use of DOMConfigurator.configureAndWatch().
That�s because the watchdog thread started by this method always invokes
LogManager.getLoggerRepository.
Please let me know any comments or concerns you may have.
Thanks in advance.
