-----------------------------------------

Hello Gary,

Basically I have this class, which is a wrapper that I used on Loggers which 
are shared across many applications to make sure that the message is logged 
into the correct context: 
https://github.com/mulesoft/mule/blob/mule-3.x/modules/launcher/src/main/java/org/mule/module/launcher/log4j2/DispatchingLogger.java

The problem is that if the configuration is reloaded (most likely because the 
user modified the log4j2.xml) file, I need the 
updateConfiguration(Configuration) invokation to be propagated to the 
originalLogger. Because that method is not visible from this context, I cannot 
override it without hacking.

Thanks

> Hello,
> I'm using log4j2 as the foundation for a centralized logging infrastructure 
> inside an application container. For such requirement, I need to be able to 
> override the org.apache.logging.log4j.core.Logger#updateConfiguration method. 
> However, that method has package visibility and thus cannot be gracefully 
> overriden.
> It'd be great if that method could be protected so that subclasses can 
> redefine it. 
> Thanks
