DailyFileAppender question

hi all,
can anyone tell me 
* if there is a way of using the DailyFileAppender class forcing the 
system to rename the log file both when the date changes AND when a 
specified maxFileSize has been reached?
* where I should affect to set the final logfilename as 
DATE_fileName.log?

thx in advance

This is probably better for the User list...

1) I created a CompositeRollingFileAppender sometime back which a few
people use.  The code is attached along with a couple example config
files.
2) To my knowledge none of the rolling appenders can do this.  You are
welcome to modify code...
