You can do it either way. You're not hard-coding the path in the Java
code, only the relative location of the log4j configuration file to your
docBase. You already said you want the configuration file in WEB-INF/,
not WEB-INF/classes and not elsewhere on the classpath, so you're taking
the Class#getResource approach out. You're also taking log4j's default
initialization procedure out. So what choices are you leaving that are
not "hard-coded" ? ;)
