[jira] [Created] (LOG4NET-369) preserveLogFileNameExtension is not considered when rolling over time after an application restart

Dominik Psenner created LOG4NET-369:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: preserveLogFileNameExtension is not considered when rolling over time after an application restart
                 Key: LOG4NET-369
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-369
             Project: Log4net
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Appenders
    Affects Versions: 1.2.9
            Reporter: Dominik Psenner
            Assignee: Dominik Psenner
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.2.12


Consider this configuration, with V 1.2.11 or trunk:

<file value="log.log" />
<appendToFile value="true" />
<rollingStyle value="Composite" />
<datePattern value=".yyyyMMdd-HHmm" />
<staticLogFileName value="true" />
<preserveLogFileNameExtension value="true" />

* Start an application (a verbose one, preferably) with it.

* Kill it immediately.
  Log directory now looks like this
  ---
  log.log
  ---

* Wait until we are in another minute

* Start application again

* Kill it immediately
  Log directory now looks like this
  ---
  log.log
  log.log.20130122-2042
  ---

Didn't we say we want to preserveLogFileNameExtension?
Shouldn't the file name of the file rolled over be "log.20130122-2042.log"?
If the application weren't killed and restarted in another period,
everything were correct.

This happens when rolling over an old log file from a previous run upon application start. The line of this patch fixes it.
