---------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm using properties file to configure log4j2.
Is there a doc on the configuation properties and there respective names in
properties file?
I'm trying to configure DefaultRolloverStrategy with 'IfAcculmulatedFileCount'
pathCondition and I don't know what is the right key name for this property in
properties file.
Simply, I want an equivalent for the below configuration, that can be added to
log4j2.properties file
{code:xml}
<Policies>
<TImeBasedTriggeringPolicy />
<SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy size="250MB" />
</Policies>
<DefaultRolloverStrategy max="7" >
<Delete basePath="${base}">
<IfAccumulatedFileCount exceeds="7" />
</Delete>
</DefaultRolloverStrategy>
{code}
note: Excuse me if this not the right place to ask about this doubt.

> Feature request: auto-delete older log files
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LOG4J2-435
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-435
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Arkin Yetis
> Assignee: Remko Popma
> Labels: Rollover
> Fix For: 2.5
>
> Attachments: LimitingRolloverStrategy.java, SizeParser.java
>
>
> Original description:
> {quote}
> DefaultRolloverStrategy max attribute only applies if you have a %i in the
> file pattern. This request is to enhance DefaultRolloverStrategy or another
> appropriate component to allow a max number of files limit to apply across
> days/months/years when a filePattern includes a date pattern.
> {quote}
> ----
> One of the most requested features is to add the ability to Log4j to "clean
> up" older log files. This usually means deleting these files, although it
> could also mean moving them to a different location, or some combination of
> these.
> Users have different requirements for selecting the files to clean up. A
> common request is the ability to keep the last X number of log files. This
> works well if rollover is only date based but may give undesired results with
> size based rollover.
> Another factor to consider is that the directory containing the log files may
> contain the log files for multiple appenders, or even files unrelated to
> logging.
