@JWT007, Thanks for reporting this. Although we could solve this with a documentation update, I am classifying this as a feature request. Without discussing the merit of the `createOnDemand` configuration attribute itself, I find the lack of this feature in many variants of the [file](https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/appenders/file.html) and [rolling file](https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/appenders/rolling-file.html) appenders a bug. Personally I consider all those plugins as variants of either the [`File` Appender](https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/appenders/file.html) or the [`RollingFile` Appender](https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/appenders/rolling-file.html). Generic features like `createOnDemand` should be introduced to all 5 plugins (or none at all :wink:). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
