Changing LockingModel at runtime

["Vanderkolk, John" <Jo...@compuware.com>]

Hello all,

If in my config file I set all of my appenders as MinimalLock appenders,
is it possible to later set a specific appender (which I already have
code to grab) over to an ExclusiveLock? Also, if I set my config file as
a read and watch, when/if it reloads the config file, will the appender
be moved back to a MinimalLock, and if it will, is there any way of
preventing this?

What would the code look like (in C#) to change the locking model at
runtime assuming I've already extracted the appender from the
repository.

Use 

.LockingModel = new FileAppender.MinimalLock();
