[logback-user] RollingFileAppender

[Ceki Gulcu]

Hello Greg,

Please see

http://logback.qos.ch/xref-test/ch/qos/logback/core/rolling/TimeBasedRollingTest.html

for an example. You just need to replace

  RollingFileAppender<Object> rfa = new RollingFileAppender<Object>();

with

  RollingFileAppender<LoggingEvent> rfa =
                            new RollingFileAppender<LoggingEvent>();

and the layout variable should be of type PattenLayout (assuming that's the 
layout type you wish to use).

HTH,
