                 Key: LBCLASSIC-114
                 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-114
             Project: logback-classic
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Other
            Reporter: Philippe Marschall
            Assignee: Logback dev list
            Priority: Minor


Setting up logback JMX for a web application requires a bit too many manual steps. It is not enough to simply add <jmxConfigurator /> to the configuration file. You should also set the context path but often you can't know that in advance. In addition you still need to write custom code to [prevent memory leaks|http://logback.qos.ch/manual/jmxConfig.html#leak]. These issues could all be addressed by a custom context listener. 

  <listener>
    <listener-class>ch.qos.logback.classic.selector.servlet.JmxEnabler</listener-class>
  </listener>

Code attached.
