Reset Classloading using Micro Container Beans in JBoss EAP 5

Issue

• While using a separate log4j configuration to create application log files. The container is configured to isolate ear deployments. Deployment is successfull and logging works basically with its own log4j.xml.

However, there exist some (required) libraries in ear deployment that also contains a log4j.xml. So it randomly takes a log configuration and many times it is the wrong one resulting in a missing log.

Is there a way to control the search order that my log4j.xml will be found first beforce 3rd party configurations will be used?

I tried the following locations withing the ear file but without success:
- .EAR/META-INF/log4j.xml
- .EAR/log4j.xml
- .EAR/lib/log4j.xml
- .EAR/ejb-module.jar/log4j.xml
