Description

I need to reassign System.out and System.err after Log4j2 is configured.

Log4j 1.2 supports ConsoleAppender.setFollow(true).
If set, the appender honors reassignments of System.out or System.err made after configuration.

How do I set this within Log4j2 ?

Now, Log4j2 is still logging to Console even if I reassigned System.out and System.err before.
