Hi,
How do I configure log4j to use Configurator#configureAndWatch. My
log4j.properties file looks like below. And are there any performance
implications of doing this versus the default (Configurator#configure)

Thanks for your help.
-Samir

---excerpt from log4j.properties---
log4j.rootCategory=INFO, LOGFILE

log4j.appender.S1=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.S1.File=/usr/home/samirs/logs/search.log
log4j.appender.S1.DatePattern='.'yyyyMMdd
log4j.appender.S1.Append=true
log4j.appender.S1.Threshold=DEBUG
log4j.appender.S1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.S1.layout.ConversionPattern=%d [%t] [%-5p] %c.%m%n

---end---

Hi,
Yes, if you configure log4j using Configurator#configureAndWatch (rather
than just Configurator#configure which is the default).
