I am trying to figure out if there is a way to reload the properties file anytime it changes without restarting the system. One of our requirements is that the properties file can be changed and the logging will automatically change without restarting the system. I know you can use the PropertyConfigurator's configureAndWatch method, but I don't see how you could put this method in each class that instantiates a logger. It seems like way too much overhead. If anyone knows of a way to do this, I would appreciate it
