RE: How to change the type of logging without restarting the app lica tion

[Mark Douglas <Ma...@systemsunion.com>]

Use the configureAndWatch() method instead of configure() when configuring
log4j.

This allows you to specify an interval at which log4j will re-read the
configuration file.  Works a treat.

Subject: How to change the type of logging without restarting the
applica tion


Is there a way to change the type of logging without restarting the
application. We are using a property file to specify the categories and
priorities when the application starts. If we change this property file is
there a way that log4j will automatically pick up the new property settings
without restarting the application ?

Thanks for help in advance.
Sajid.
