Does this mean that DailyRollingFileApender is going to be removed from log4cxx ?
I have not been able to find a mailing list discussion on the decision to deprecate DailyRollingFileAppender. It would indicate that DailyRollingFileAppender might be removed in log4j 1.5 or so and alternatives should be considered.

I guess by meaningful, you mean formatted something like T1D4H33M? I wouldn't think "13.404 s" would be significantly more readable than "13404 ms". I haven't dug into this on the log4j bug or mailing list.
Yes, days, hours and minutes would be a good solution.
Okay. I wanted to understand what you were thinking. If you want this mainstream log4cxx, the best process would be to raise this an a potential enhancement to log4j and see if you can get it in there. However, that process could take quite a lot of time before it trickles into log4cxx. I haven't looked to see if the PatternLayout provides hooks for user added format specifiers, but if not we might look at making it a little easier to do.
