Which I thought I already did in my blog post, where this gist is used. I believe Nelz was first with a post on it in 2008.
OK, I am sorry. Google has found this gist and not your blog. Nice piece of code, thanks.

No worries 😄 I'm just glad you found the code you needed 👍
Thank you! I have created for logback https://gist.github.com/iaveryanov/792aa692de6f9f62294c
Hi, do we have same example for Log4j2 ? I tried doing by my own but seems the architecture has been changed a lot.
Give honor to whom (I suppose) it is due.

Looks like it's copied from http://ananthkannan.blogspot.cz/2009/10/how-to-change-log-levels-on-fly-using.html If so, it would be nice to mention the original source.
