Hi Joern, To set the level of a logger: import ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger; LoggerContext loggerContext = (LoggerContext) loggerFactory; Logger logger = (Logger) loggerContext.getLogger("a.name"); Level oldLevel = logger.getLevel(); logger.setLevel(Level.a_level_of_your choice); To create an appender, there are a bunch of examples under http://logback.qos.ch/xref-test/ch/qos/logback/core/rolling/package-summary.... see for example http://logback.qos.ch/xref-test/ch/qos/logback/core/rolling/RenamingTest.htm... Once you create an appender, you can easily associate it with a logger logger.addAppender(appender); You can later remove it by invoking logger.detachAppender(appender) // detach by appender reference or logger.detachAppender("appender name"); // detach by name Let me know if you have further questions.

Hi Ceki,
I'm referring to your comment on http://stackoverflow.com/questions/945659/is-there-any-way-to-automatically-...
I've never configured Logback programatically and always assumed that Joran was "the way" to do it. How can this be done? I have to admit that I haven't reread the manual concerning this topic, yet, but thought I'd ask you anyway since it's probably quite easy for you.
Would you like to integrate the code into a new logback-module (a new module so the compile dependency to JUnit doesn't pollute anything else)? After I've enhanced and documented it, obviously... I was looking for something like that for more than 4 years so I'm quite happy that I have found such a solution... others would probably benefit, too.
Regards + thanks, Joern.
