/**
* DailyRollingFileAppender extends {@link FileAppender} so that the underlying
* file is rolled over at a user chosen frequency.
*
* DailyRollingFileAppender has been observed to exhibit synchronization issues
* and data loss. The log4j extras companion includes alternatives which should
* be considered for new deployments and which are discussed in the
* documentation for org.apache.log4j.rolling.RollingFileAppender.
*
*
* The rolling schedule is specified by the DatePattern option. This
* pattern should follow the {@link SimpleDateFormat} conventions. In
* particular, you must escape literal text within a pair of single
* quotes. A formatted version of the date pattern is used as the suffix for the
* rolled file name.
*
*
* For example, if the File option is set to /foo/bar.log
* and the DatePattern set to '.'yyyy-MM-dd, on 2001-02-16
* at midnight, the logging file /foo/bar.log will be copied to
* /foo/bar.log.2001-02-16 and logging for 2001-02-17 will continue
* in /foo/bar.log until it rolls over the next day.
*
*
* Is is possible to specify monthly, weekly, half-daily, daily, hourly, or
* minutely rollover schedules.
*
*
*
*
* DatePattern
* Rollover schedule
* Example
*
*
* '.'yyyy-MM
* Rollover at the beginning of each month
*
* At midnight of May 31st, 2002 /foo/bar.log will be copied to
* /foo/bar.log.2002-05. Logging for the month of June will be
* output to /foo/bar.log until it is also rolled over the next
* month.
*
*
* '.'yyyy-ww
*
* Rollover at the first day of each week. The first day of the week depends
* on the locale.
*
* Assuming the first day of the week is Sunday, on Saturday midnight, June
* 9th 2002, the file /foo/bar.log will be copied to
* /foo/bar.log.2002-23. Logging for the 24th week of 2002 will be output
* to /foo/bar.log until it is rolled over the next week.
*
*
* '.'yyyy-MM-dd
*
* Rollover at midnight each day.
*
* At midnight, on March 8th, 2002, /foo/bar.log will be copied
* to /foo/bar.log.2002-03-08. Logging for the 9th day of March
* will be output to /foo/bar.log until it is rolled over the next
* day.
*
*
* '.'yyyy-MM-dd-a
*
* Rollover at midnight and midday of each day.
*
* At noon, on March 9th, 2002, /foo/bar.log will be copied to
* /foo/bar.log.2002-03-09-AM. Logging for the afternoon of the 9th
* will be output to /foo/bar.log until it is rolled over at
* midnight.
*
*
* '.'yyyy-MM-dd-HH
*
* Rollover at the top of every hour.
*
* At approximately 11:00.000 o'clock on March 9th, 2002,
* /foo/bar.log will be copied to
* /foo/bar.log.2002-03-09-10. Logging for the 11th hour of the 9th
* of March will be output to /foo/bar.log until it is rolled over
* at the beginning of the next hour.
*
*
*
* '.'yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm
*
* Rollover at the beginning of every minute.
*
* At approximately 11:23,000, on March 9th, 2001, /foo/bar.log
* will be copied to /foo/bar.log.2001-03-09-10-22. Logging for the
* minute of 11:23 (9th of March) will be output to /foo/bar.log
* until it is rolled over the next minute.
*
*
*
*
* Do not use the colon ":" character in anywhere in the DatePattern
* option. The text before the colon is interpeted as the protocol specificaion
* of a URL which is probably not what you want.
