How to rename the rolled over file?

Hello Friends,

I am using Log4J version 1.2.7. I want to roll over the Log file every month and hence I am using the org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender in my xml file.
i.e:
<appender name="ToFile" class="org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender">
:
:
 I would like to control the name of the rolled file. i.e.: currently it is named as 
ErrorLogs.log.2002-20-12.
However I would like to name it as 
ErrorLogs_12-20-2002.
How do I achieve this?

All help in this regard would be appreciated.

Thanks and regards,

Milan Doshi

Posted by Daniel Serodio <da...@checkforte.com.br>.
<appender name="ToFile"
class="org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender">
<param name="DatePattern" value=".dd-MM-yyyy"/>
</appender>

Also, try reading the Javadoc for DailyRollingFileAppender, it's all
there.
