Hello log4j team, I have a use case where I need to create different loggers with different attributes at run time.
For example, let's say that: 1) at startup I want 1 logger with 1 syslog appender 2) after a while, I want 1 logger with 1 file appender 3) after a while, I want 1 logger with 1 syslog and 1 file appender What would be more suitable in this case? a) programmatically modifying the current configuration after initialization b) or creating a new configuration using the ConfigurationBuilder and initializing a new LoggerContext for the new configuration using Configurator.initialize()? Personally, I find the 2nd approach better as it provides a cleaner API to programmatically create the new loggers. But by doing so, I will create multiple LoggerContexts. Is it valid to have multiple LoggerContexts? If yes, what is the recommended way of accessing the a LoggerContext? I am aware about the ContextSelector class but I am not sure if it is suitable for my needs, as all the LoggerContexts will be created using the same classloader. Thank you very much for your valuable feedback, Apostolis
