Using a log4j appender as a custom-handler should invoke the activateOptions if required ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-2995 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-2995 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Reporter: James Perkins Assignee: James Perkins Fix For: 8.0.1.Final Currently the {{OptionHandler.activateOptions}} is only invoked during construction of a log4j appender. This invocation should happen if any property is updated or added. The invocation of this method should also only happen once. Multiple invocation could result in errors or leave the appender in an invalid state.
