I want to limit the number of log files for a DailyRollingFileAppender. I search for a parameter like maxBackupIndex (in RollingFileAppender) but can not find one. Is there really no way to limit the number of log-Files?
What is the strategy to ensure that the (number) of log files do not "overrun". Delete them manually?
