Hello Richard,
In principle, you don't have to do anything to get this working, no
context listeners or filters. There are no steps involved other than
defining a value in web.xml and fetching the defined value as explained
in [1]. Please give it a try.

Hi Ceki - I guess I was looking for another mechanism than JNDI to expose
those, simply to avoid needing the extra context listeners and servlet
filter needed for performance.
Is there some magic we could do when logging is initialized to see if it's
being loaded by a servlet classloader and finding the base servlet and
grabbing the servletcontext? Or am I grasping at straws here?
Thanks!

Sure. Values for variables can be fetched from JNDI. See [1]. Values
defined in <context-param> inside the web.xml are available via JNDI. As
far as I know, all web containers export values defined in <context-param>
inside the web.xml via JNDI.
Please try the method outlined in [1] and kindly report back on this
mailing list.

Is it possible to grab the value of the filename from the context of
the web application itself, e.g. a <context-param> inside the web.xml?
Idea here is that this can be overridden by a context.xml at
deployment time, to externalize the filename without disturbing the
web application archive, and without needing JNDI.
e.g. so:
<include file="/opt/logback-A.xml">
becomes:
<include file="${some-value-from-deployment-descriptor}">
Thanks!
Best regards,
Richard
