Hello Ted, The question was discussed in a previous thread: http://www.qos.ch/pipermail/logback-user/2007-September/000329.html To cut a long story short, the currently preferred approach is to trigger reloading of the config file via a user interface. Arthur Blake mentioned a utility that he wrote which does this. May I ask you to enter a bug report requesting this feature? HTH, Ted Graham wrote:
Can anyone tell me if “watching” the config file for changes is planned for logback?
Being unable to control the logging configuration without a restart is a big problem for my applications.
Thanks,
Ted

One of my favorite log4j features is the ability to watch the config file and reload it when it has changed. Any plans to support that in logback?
I searched this list’s archives and found some discussion of this feature, but nothing definitive.
Thanks,
Ted
