Log4J: Configure Log File and Path?

[gilgantic]

How do I configure a file and path in my log4j.lcf configuration file?
Below is a snippet of my configuration, I would like to place log file
C:\example.log, but it continues to place the log file at my
<IDE_ROOT>\example.log. (I am using WebSphere Studio 5.1). What to do?

log4j.rootLogger=debug, stdout, R

log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File=C:\example.log

Try these (one at a time) instead of that last line:

log4j.appender.R.File=C:\\example.log
log4j.appender.R.File=${user.home}/example.log
