Hi,

Can I have time stamp in log file name?

To elaborate, if my entries in the property files are:
...
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File=../logs/example.log
..

Now, I want that instead of log file name: example.log, I want the name as 
example.log.<time> of creation, is there any way to accomplish this?
