Hello, I'm just beginning to incorporate log4j into a J2EE Resource Adapter I'm writing. My project already has a configuration property file (lyConfig.properties) from which I gather various configuration parameters at startup. Rather than adding log4j.properties to my environment I'd like to add the relevent properties to the file I already have.
A couple of questions then: First of all, is this a good idea? Is it what people typically do? If so, what is the best way to force log4j to read this file? My first attempt was simply to add the following to the constructor of all objects which will instantiate a logger: System.setProperty("log4j.configuration", "lyConfig.properties"); this seems to work but it seems that it might not be very good form to change one of the system properties in a component running in an app server. So, is there any other way to accomplish this? Sorry for rambling. -Jason __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
