             Summary: Delay expression resolution in the configuration API
                 Key: LOGMGR-176
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/LOGMGR-176
             Project: JBoss Log Manager
          Issue Type: Enhancement
    Affects Versions: 2.0.7.Final
            Reporter: James Perkins
            Priority: Optional


In some cases it may be desired to delay the expansion of expressions when setting the value through the configuration API. Currently the expressions is resolved when the property is set on the target object. This can be too soon for things like formatters which should probably be more dynamic and resolve the expression during the format.

This might not make sense in all cases and will cause in decrease in performance. A good example of there this could be useful is a {{StructuredFormatter}} where the meta-data value contains an expression.

This is not a requirement, but may be a nice to have. The other option would be to reconfigure the object if a property was changed.
