> It would be useful to be able to update the Log4J settings for a running Java 
> broker via JMX, incase it was desirable to adjust logging to investigate an 
> issue which became apparent after startup. 
> Whilst Log4J supports monitoring its own configuration file for updates, the 
> broker must be started with this enabled for it to be of any use, and 
> updating the settings by manually modifying the xml file runs the risk of 
> accidentally rendering the file invalid, which could lead to serious issues 
> when the update is detected and applied by Log4j.
> In order to address these issues, adding the ability to to update the 
> settings via JMX would allow users to be able to adjust the Log4J settings in 
> 2 ways: by modifying the xml file programatically rather than by hand, or by 
> modifying the Log4J runtime settings directly, allowing (temporary) updates 
> even where Log4J has not been instructed to monitor its configuration file 
> for change.
