how to configure log4J to write UTF-8 file

Hi !

I use log4j to log on IBM Host that uses EBCDIC encoding.

I would like to configure my logger to write in file as UTF-8.

This is what I have in my log4j.properties file:

log4j.appender.daily=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.daily.File=log.log
log4j.appender.daily.Append=true
log4j.appender.daily.DatePattern='.'yyyy-MM-dd
log4j.appender.daily.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.daily.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %-5r %-5p [%c] (%t:%x) 
%m%n

Could I set explicitly encoding somehow in my properties file ?

Thank you !

Jelka
