Enhance FileHandler to have Daily Log Rotation capabilities

XMLWordPrintable

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
      There is no provision to have daily log rotation capabilities in java.logging.


      JUSTIFICATION :
      While Log4j has the capability to add a Daily Rotate appenders, java logging does not have one. This suppose this is quite a common request to many org's. This will also eliminate the class-loader issue for Custom handlers used in a app-server. Currently I can't use any custom handlers.

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      Log file rotates daily to the given format of the file.

      CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
      Can write custom handlers. Can put them in a common classpath..., but will mess up other applications that depend on this classpath.

      So... workaround.... Dont use Daily rotate handler or use log4j, or just go crazy.
