Dylan Nicholson created LOG4NET-598:
---------------------------------------
Summary: RollingFileAppender.DatePattern affects file extension
Key: LOG4NET-598
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-598
Project: Log4net
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Dylan Nicholson
The way DatePattern is implemented means it is always appended to the end of
the standard Filename when rolling over, but that means you end up with a file
that isn't .log (unless you add yet another .log to the end of the
DatePattern), and so won't open easily for viewing on many O/S's (esp. MacOS).
I'd expect to be able to say that I want the static file to be called, e.g.,
"Logs/current.log" but each rolled over file to follow the pattern
"Logs/archived-\{yyyy-mm-dd}.log"
