Fixed in 1.1b7! Thanks for the report! |
configureAndWatch does not close the configuration file making it impossible to change while running. The fix is as follows: public void doConfigure(String filename, Hierarchy hierarchy) { FileInputStream fis = null; try { fis = new FileInputStream(filename); doConfigure(fis, hierarchy); } catch(IOException e) { LogLog.error("Could not open ["+filename+"].", e); } finally { if (fis != null) { fis.close(); } } }
