Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-1178:
-------------------------------------

I thought this use case was why we introduced the log4j-io module. Why does 
that module not solve the problem?

> Support use-case for JDBC's DataSource.setLogWriter(PrintStream)

> I am writing a JDBC driver. The JDBC Spec has a a method 
> [DataSource.setLogWriter(PrintStream)|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/sql/CommonDataSource.html#setLogWriter-java.io.PrintWriter-]
>  API drivers should implement.
> Users can drop our driver into any tool that talks JDBC or write their own 
> apps. In am concerned about the 'drop the driver anywhere' scenario, like in 
> an Eclipse based tool; that may or may not use Eclipse DTP. Or anything else.
> The 
> [setLogWriter()|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/sql/CommonDataSource.html#setLogWriter-java.io.PrintWriter-]
>  API can be called at any time, after Log4j has initialized itself for 
> example.
> I do all my driver logging through Log4j. If a tool calls 
> [setLogWriter()|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/sql/CommonDataSource.html#setLogWriter-java.io.PrintWriter-],
>  I'd like the given PrintStream to become an Appender such that Log4j output 
> appears there.
> The only way I see to do that is through pseudo-code like 
> "getLoggerContext().getConfiguration().addAppender(PrintStreamAppender.createPrintStreamAppender(aPrintStream))"
> I think that would need to be followed by a full reconfigure.
> Can we use our new builder API to add to the current config and reconfigure?
