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,
