Let's say you had two methods, one of them called configureAndWatch like:
public void doConfigureAndWatch(String configFile) {
PropertyConfigurator.configureAndWatch(configFile, 1000);
}
and one of them called the configure method like:
public void doConfigure(String configFile) {
PropertyConfigurator.configure(configFile);
}
If you made a call to the doConfigureAndWatch method, I do believe that it
would keep checking the config file, even if you made a call to the
doConfigure method afterwards. The reason why is because the
configureAndWatch method actually creates a thread that checks the config
file. I believe that if you call the configure method after the
configureAndWatch method, the thread that was created by the
configureAndWatch method is still alive.
In my experience, I've only done one or the other.

But does calling PropertyConfigurator.configure("myConfFile") override the
previous call, thereby turning off the watch?

You could use the configure method like:
PropertyConfigurator.configure("myConfFile");
I believe that will just load your config file. It will not check to see if
it's been updated. I'm not aware of being able to somehow "turn off" the
configureAndWatch method.

Subject: Turning of conf file watching
Hey all,
Quick question: If I initialize a PropertyConfigurator with
PropertyConfigurator.configureAndWatch("myConfFile", 1000);
is there anyway I can turn that watch off? The API doc is not clear on this
issue. I basically want the ability to, at some future point,
programmatically stop checking the configuration file and auto-loading the
configuration. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance,
Charlie
