------------------------------
Summary: How to merge an additional `log4j.xml` file
post-initialisation?
Key: LOG4J2-2830
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2830
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Question
Components: API, Configuration, Configurators
Affects Versions: 2.13.2
Environment: * Java 1.8
* Log4j2 2.13.2
* Gradle 6.3
* Project under question:
[https://github.com/Axieum/Chatter/blob/dev/discord/chatter-discord/src/main/resources/log4j.xml]
Reporter: Axieum
I am creating an add-on for a framework which, by the time my add-on begins to
load, has already established and loaded its own `log4j.xml` file. I would like
to have my `log4j.xml` file merged and loaded.
I am able to manually achieve this by, in development, modifying the run
configuration to include my `log4j.xml` path in the
`-log4j.configurationFile=their_file.xml,my_file.xml`. But this is not a
solution.
I cannot find a way to have my add-on run some static code before the framework.
Is it possible for the framework to remove their hardcoded configuration path,
and allow Log4j2 to automatically search and find all `log4j.xml` files on the
class path?
