Ceki Gulcu resolved LBCLASSIC-292.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

With the addition of FileExistsPropertyDefiner the desired behavior can be achieved with conditional inclusion as described above.

> Logback emits a warning if a file named in <include/> isn't present.
> Sometimes, an included configuration file is purely optional. E.g. I would want to mail a more verbose configuration to a customer who has some mysterious error where the standard logging simply isn't detailed enough.
> Unfortunately, this means that in the standard case, I'll be spammed with the missing file warning, plus heaps of INFO messages. This might distract from relevant logback configuration problems.
> Suggestion: extend <include/> so that it accepts <include optional="true" ... />. If an include is optional, it will not generate error messages if the requested configuration is not present.
> The loading code might want to differentiate between "does not exist" (to suppress the message) and other problems (which probably should still be reported).
