http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35996 Summary: Add support for ant-like <property> in log4j.xml Product: Log4j Version: 1.2 Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: Configurator AssignedTo: log4j-dev@logging.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] DOMConfigurator is able to replace variables using it's internal props attribute that is never set. It may be cool to use an ant-like <property> tag (perhaps the existing code may be reused) in log4j.xml to enable variable substitution from various sources. Using this user could share a common (maybe complex) log4j configuration and just setup local (system dependant) settings, like logging dir or anything else, without having to know anything about log4j. Having recursive variable substitution, we could setup log4j like this : <log4:configuration> <property file="${user.home}/custom.properties"/> <appender name="DEBUG" class="..."> <param name="File" value="${custom.logs.home}/debug.log"/> ...
