Create a RollingRandomAccessFileAppender.

Parameters:

fileName - The name of the file that is actively written to. (required).

filePattern - The pattern of the file name to use on rollover. (required).

append - If true, events are appended to the file. If false, the file is overwritten when opened. Defaults to "true"

name - The name of the Appender (required).

immediateFlush - When true, events are immediately flushed. Defaults to "true".

bufferSizeStr - The buffer size, defaults to .

policy - The triggering policy. (required).

strategy - The rollover strategy. Defaults to DefaultRolloverStrategy.

layout - The layout to use (defaults to the default PatternLayout).

filter - The Filter or null.

ignore - If "true" (default) exceptions encountered when appending events are logged; otherwise they are propagated to the caller.

advertise - "true" if the appender configuration should be advertised, "false" otherwise.

advertiseURI - The advertised URI which can be used to retrieve the file contents.

config - The Configuration.

Returns:

A RollingRandomAccessFileAppender.
