QpidRollingFileAppender does not delete backup files.

                 Key: QPID-2739
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-2739
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.6, 0.5, M4
            Reporter: Martin Ritchie
            Assignee: Martin Ritchie
             Fix For: 0.7


Currently the QpidRollingFileAppender behaves like the log4j 
RollingFileAppender wrt maintaining a maximum number of backup files. 

When a file is to be deleted the file with relative path is provided to the 
delete method. Trouble is we have augmented RollingFileAppender to provide a 
backup loaction. This means that the deleteFile method fails to delete the file 
as the main Appender code does not know about the backup location.

Augmenting the delete method to change the path would be in line with the 
addition to add the compression file extension that is already performed here.
