easily housekept?

I do believe log4r has a rolling file appender that will perform date/
size based rolling of your log files. This will not alter the basename
of the log file, just increment a counter …
basename.1.log
basename.2.log
etc.
Changing the basename is something you would have to do
programatically from your own code. I do not think log4r supports that.

Hi Col,
of course you can. Pls use the outputter DateFileOutputter.
Have a look at the files in gems’ example directory:
/install_dir/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/log4r-1.0.5/examples:
yaml.rb & log4r_yaml.yaml.
You can change the logfile name each year or month or day or hour or
minute …
Cheers
Andreas
