Summary:              Append log records to the end of the log file
Issue Type:           Improvement
Assignee:             SLF4J developers list
Components:           slf4j-simple
Created:              15/Feb/21 6:11 AM
Labels:               FileAppender appender
Priority:             Minor
Reporter:             Dmitriy Fedoriv
Description:
  It would be great to have the ability to aggregate all log records in a single log file. As a short term solution, we could expose a new option to control FileOutputStream append, as a long term - design simple log retention functionality.
  
  `org.slf4j.simpleLogger.logFileAppend`
  When true, records will be appended to the end of the file. When set to false, the file will be cleared before new records are written. Defaults to `false` for backward compatibility.
