Md Jamaluddin Khan commented on LOG4J2-3483:
--------------------------------------------

You are correct that's from log4j-extras. Are you trying to say that the bridge 
won't support any configuration supported by log4j-extras ? 

I see the source code for bridge api uses a Builder which hardcodes the 
filePattern. Same for the RollingFileAppender class. 

Can we make it more dynamic and make it accept a filePattern. If absent then do 
whatever you are doing already.

> log4j-1.2-api bridge RollingFileAppender doesn't provide filePattern support

> The Builder for RollingFileAppender doesn't provide support for filePattern. 
> In case of a roll-over it uses a hardcoded pattern like 'filename+.<count>'.
> There are cases where a user would like the rolled over file to be named as 
> per a desired pattern. In absence of this option it renders the migration 
> from log4j1 to log4j2 via bridge almost impossible without breaking changes.
> Add support for filePattern in all the configurations ( XML, properties )
