Thanks for sharing this info.
I was considering 1.3 version for better management - purging log files
before certain date, log4j 1.3 provides max. backup index option with
DailyRollingFileAppender. I am also looking at logrotate and cronolog for
this, but not sure if I could use it in conjunction with
DailyRollingFileAppender. Any thoughts?
Have a look at the "extras" for 1.2. Many of the rolling policy
additions have been backported to 1.2. I've got no experience on my own
with those, and since they are not bundled, they might still not be in
wide use, so use with care:
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/companions/extras/
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/companions/extras/apidocs/index.html
There's not much docs for it around, you can get some things from the
javadoc, other info from the abandoned 1.3 branch might apply to the extras.
One example for what you are looking for could be
TimeBasedRollingPolicy. One example for how to use it can be found on
http://wiki.apache.org/logging-log4j/Log4jXmlFormat
