[logback-dev] Question about LoggerContext.putProperty and putObject

[Ceki Gulcu]

It is possible to set properties from a config file. This is
documented at:

http://logback.qos.ch/manual/configuration.html#variableSubstitution
http://logback.qos.ch/manual/configuration.html#insertFromJNDI

LoggerContext properties also survive serialization. However, in
future releases I'd like to distinguish between "local" variables
which do not survive serialization and "persistent" variables which do
survive.

You might also be interested to know that you can define your own
parsing rules on the fly:

HTH,
