--------------------------------------------------------------

This is personally tested and worked on EAP using a {{<custom-handler>}}. {{logging.properties}} should be edited to choose a proper constructor (using a setter doesn't work).

{code}
handler.CUSTOM.constructorProperties=fileName,append,hourOfDay
{code}

I had changed {{PeriodicRotatingFileHandler}} directly rather than subclassing it because the rotation logic is mostly in the class as a private method.

> Add ability to rotate at other than midnight without changing time zone.
> Background: a global company distributes hosts around the world and all hosts configure the same time zone, UTC. In some zone, it's the peak time at midnight and the log file is divided by the rotation. They want to make the rotation time be configurable.
> WebLogic has such a configuration, "Begin Rotation Time":
