How do I go about setting the configuration for a logger where the class doesn't have a main() method? In the examples that I have looked at the logger is statically instantiated and then the configuration is set in main().
For example:

			

			public class MyApp {
			

			

			static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(MyApp.class);
			

			

			public static void main(String[] args) {
			

			PropertyConfigurator.configure(...);
			

			" "
			

			" "
			

			}
			

			}
			

		

However, my classes don't contain a main(). I have written a small demo where I statically instantiate a Logger and then I use a static intialization block to set the configuration in each class. It looks like:

			

			public class MyClass{
			

			

			static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(MyClass.class);
			

			

			static {
			

			PropertyConfigurator.configureAndWatch(
			

			"SomeFile.properties", 1500);
			

			}
			

			}
			

		

Is this a bone-head thing to do?
