Thank you. I don't want to set the filename or maintain the appender
from my program. This is up to the operators running the application.
And I don't want to add limitations beyond those given by logback
itself. I thought logback would know the file it uses - why not supply
the name?
I could also (and I do it already) set the logfile by the operationg
system and provide the name as an argument. In this case the I must
request that only the console-appender can be used. But I don't like
this approach.

Buy the way I did it was to make the app choose the filename and set a system
property. Then in logback.xml refer to the system property.
If that approach does not work, because you are using a dynamic log file name,
then I suggest you try subclassing the rolling appender and getting the new
filename each time one is generated, and then putting that value into a static
singleton that is visible to your app.

I've asked this question before but didn't get an answer. So I will give it
another try.
I've browsed through the Javadoc of the classes and interfaces where I thought
by their name they should be able to provide this piece of information
(LoggerContext and Appender to name two of them), but wasn't lucky.
Can anyone help here?
