Heiko Tappe commented on LOG4J2-1031:
-------------------------------------
I am curious: What exactly was less than satisfactory?
I'd love to see this feature for config files.

> Key: LOG4J2-1031
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1031
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Appenders
> Affects Versions: 2.3
> Reporter: Ralph Goers
> Assignee: Ralph Goers
>
> Now that Log4j requires Java 7 we can begin to take advantage of more of its
> features. One of these is the WatchService
> -http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/nio/file/WatchService.html.
> This could be used for monitoring changes to the configuration file(s) and by
> the RollingFileAppender.
