What exactly isn't getting recognized? What are you changing? The only thing that I know can be done using configureAndWatch is to add loggers. Someone please correct me if I am wrong here. So, you can add them, but removing them from the properties file will not cause a particular logger from being removed from the logger Hierarchy. The only way to remove them from there is programatically. configureAndWatch() is pretty limited.

Hi everybody,
unfortunately nobody answered me at my previous mail (shown below) about logging for a bean.
Now, I 'm wondering whether I did not receive any answer because mine is a complicated problem that nobody has already investigated, or I'm following a completely wrong way or I haven't been able to explain my problem properly or something else.
What's the reason, please? :-)
Thanks in advance,
best regards,
Alessio
