Probably the most convenient way to loggify classes at runtime is to start the JVM with the following command line option:

  $ java -javaagent:path/to/de.unkrig.loggifier.jar ...

The LOGGIFIER plugs into the [http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/instrument/package-summary.html "Java programming language agents" API] (available since Java 5) and implements loggification at class-loading time.

The agent interprets its argument as (newline-separated) loggification rules:

  $ java '-javaagent:path/to/de.unkrig.loggifier.jar<span style="color:blue">=CLINIT=INFO
  > ALL=FINER</span>' ...
