Ceki Gulcu resolved LBCORE-60.
------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

Hello Szel,

The MaxHistory property in TimeBasedRollingPolicy can accommodate the needs of most users. If you need to have smaller files, then try a shorter rollover period, for example, daily rollover instead of weekly.

The RollingFileAppender code is already pretty complicated. I don't wish to render it unmanageable. Consequently, I am marking this issue as WONT FIX as opposed to having it rot for eons.

> The rolling grouping file appender allows to roll over on a specific interval(TimeBasedRollingPolicy) or when the log file has reached a specific file size. But unfortunately Logback does not support both to use together. For example if i want to roll over every day but i also want to roll the file when it is greater than 100MB.
> Please consider adding this feature to Logback and feel free to contact me if further clarification is required.
