[logback-user] Best Practices and JMX Configuration

[Dale.Chapman at medavie.bluecross.ca]

I apologize if this has been covered already, but I have not been able to 
find it so far in the manual or the mailing list archive.

My organization is in the middle of defining our logging standards and we 
are looking for some best practice information. We are intending to make 
use of JMX for management of the logger settings.

1 - In log4j, the standard practice that I saw was for developers to 
statically define a logger for each class instead of dynamically calling 
getLogger() for each logging message.  Given the dramatic speed 
improvements in the getLogger() calls, is this still the recommended 
practice?

2 - When using the JMXConfigurator, do the existing loggers that have been 
defined get updated or are they discarded and new ones created?  This is 
related to (1) above in that if new objects are created instead of 
updating existing, then use of a statically defined logger is not 
acceptable.

Thanks in advance for the advice.
