+ This example show how to configure the
<span class="code">RollingFileAppender</span>
+ to roll log files once per program
execution. The <span class="code">appendToFile</span>
+ property is set to <span
class="code">false</span> to prevent the appender from overwriting
+ the existing files. The <span
class="code">maxSizeRollBackups</span> is set to negative
+ 1 to allow an infinite number of backup
files. The file size does have to be limited but
+ here it is set to 50 Gigabytes which,
if a log file exceeds this size limit during a single
+ run then it will also be rolled.
