Re: AW: Limit for files created
RollingFileAppender creates new logs when a size limit is reached. I want
to keep writing to the file regardless of size for the whole day, hence the
use of DailyRollingFileAppender.

Please respond to "Log4J
Users List"
from the DOCUMENTATION of RollingFileAppender:
"public void setMaxBackupIndex(int maxBackups)
Set the maximum number of backup files to keep around.
The MaxBackupIndex option determines how many backup files are kept
before the oldest is erased. This option takes a positive integer
value. If set to zero, then there will be no backup files and the
log file will be truncated when it reaches MaxFileSize."
RTFM!
