             Summary: Add rolling date support to fileName, RollingRandomAccessFile
                 Key: LOG4J2-1859
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1859
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Appenders
    Affects Versions: 2.6.2
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Danny Chen
            Priority: Minor


We are currently using Log4j2 version 2.6.2.  Within our configuration, we are using RollingRandomAccessFile. For the "filePattern", there is date support and rolling date support.  But for "fileName", there is no date rolling support.

Example:
<RollingRandomAccessFile name="RollingRandomAccessFile" fileName="logs/app-${date:yyyy-MM-dd}.log" filePattern="logs/$${date:yyyy-MM}/app-%d{MM-dd-yyyy}-%i.log.gz">

With the above config, once the rolling is done on the next date, the current log file is still the current date.  It seems as the current log file name is always fixed.  There is no rolling to it.
