Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-1429:
-------------------------------------

You can use 
{code}
LoggerContext initialize(final String name, final ClassLoader loader, final 
List<URI> configLocations, final Object externalContext)
{code}

to initialize Log4j. You can gather the config locations in any manner you want 
and then pass them to the initialize method.

> Configuration File Include 
> logback has a configuration feature that allows a fragment of a file to be 
> included.  The file source can be a file, classpath resource, or a URL.  The 
> feature is documented here: 
> http://logback.qos.ch/manual/configuration.html#fileInclusion .  This 
> requested feature need not be implemented the same.  Instead of fragments, it 
> would probably be okay to supply a full configuration and merge it. Either 
> implementation would work for my specific use case.
> Each of the included files should be checked for changes on the 
> monitorInterval to allow a reload of the configuration.
> Also includes can be considered "optional", which allows the resource to be 
> missing.
> The main use case I have as a requestor, is to create a configuration and 
> package it in a jar.  The jar is provided to multiple applications which can 
> adjust the logging levels at runtime for diagnostic purposes with well known 
> included files.
