I am fairly new to LOG4J, but you can set up a Properties object in your
application and use that to initialize the LOG4J engine. Here is a small
snippet of code to get you started. So with this method, you can use any
logic you need to specify the filename.
String myTempFirDir = "..."; //logic to build custom directory path
Properties props = new Properties();
props.setProperty("log4j.appender.R","org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender");
props.setProperty("log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize","1000KB");
...
props.setProperty("log4j.appender.R.File",myTempFileDir + File.separator +
"myfilename.log");
props.setProperty("log4j.appender.R.layout","org.apache.log4j.SimpleLayout");
//then use static method in log4j to initialize
PropertyConfigurator.configure(props);
