-------------------------------------
Thx [~pkarwasz] ,
well we are moving to 2.x now and historically our application allowed admins
to set log levels, add appenders, etc at runtime and persisted them to the
log4j.xml. I am exploring how much of this we can support with 2.x - reading
configuration works well but there isn't much for serializing an existing one.
But the test "LoggerContextSource" seems to work really well for setting up a
custom log4j environment for unit-tests and reconfiguring it before/after
tests. It was basically exactly the functionality I was hunting for in that
moment :) but I need it in release form. As I was googling around I came
across a few other people looking for similar functionality, so maybe it has
more application than you think. ;)

> Key: LOG4J2-3631
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3631
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 2.19.0
> Environment: Java 11 (Temurin)
> Maven
> Reporter: Jeff Thomas
> Assignee: Piotr Karwasz
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.19.1
>
>
> I have created a sample project with a simple JUnit test here:
> [https://github.com/JWT007/log4j2_logLevelClass]
> Basically I have an inner class and when I get a logger for that class I get
> the logger named.
> {{Log4jLevelTest.InnerClass}}
> and I can see its associated LoggerConfig of the same name.
> If I call "Configurator.setLevel(InnerClass.class, Level.DEBUG)" it does not
> change the level of my logger but rather creates a new LoggerConfig with the
> following name:
> {{Log4jLevelTest$InnerClass}}
> Here the output of my sample test:
>
> {code:java}
>
> ==================================================================================
> Class name :: Log4jLevelTest$InnerClass
>
> ==================================================================================
> Logger name :: Log4jLevelTest.InnerClass
> Logger level :: INFO
> Configured Loggers (1) ::
> o Log4jLevelTest.InnerClass(INFO)
>
> ==================================================================================
> >> Configurator.setLevel(Inner.class, Level.DEBUG)
> Logger name :: Log4jLevelTest.InnerClass
> Logger level :: INFO
> Configured Loggers (1) ::
> o Log4jLevelTest.InnerClass(INFO)
> o Log4jLevelTest$InnerClass(DEBUG)
> {code}
