You misunderstood.
If you change the filename dynamically at runtime, then activate it by calling
appender.activateOptions();
if you use a config file, then you do NOT need to call
appender.activateOptions() (until later if u change the filename at runtime).
In the config file... you be specifying the file option.
With the properties file:
log4j.appender.MYAPPENDER.File = c:\\log.txt
Research the XML format for yourself.
