Hi
Use a RollingFileAppender. Set the MaxBackupIndex to the number of logs
you want to maintain, and the MaxFileSize to the size of each logs file
before it ROLLS over to the next log.
In log4j.xml:
<appender name="CSF_FILE" class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="Threshold" value="INFO"/>
<param name="File" value="server.log"/>
<param name="Append" value="true"/>
<param name="MaxFileSize" value="500KB"/>
<param name="MaxBackupIndex" value="10"/>
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d %-5p [%c]
%m%n"/>
</layout>
</appender>
Hope this helps.
