           Summary: FileAppender to create necessary dirs in path to file.
           Product: Log4j
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Appender
        AssignedTo: log4j-dev@logging.apache.org
        ReportedBy: d.alexander@lse.ac.uk


Would be nice if FileAppender could create necessary dirs in path to the file
where necessary:

e.g. if I specify a filename, /var/logs/myapp/name.log
but some of the dirs don't exist, I just get an error.

Would be nice if it was possible to have log4j create the dirs if necessary.

I suppose this might not be wanted as a default setting, but there could be a
boolean createDirs property to turn this functionality on.

Wouldn't mind writing a patch for this if the idea is accepted.
