Myrna van Lunteren commented on DERBY-6350:
-------------------------------------------
I've not had a chance to further investigate either, except to say that there
are 3 fixtures/methods that suffer from this behavior:
testStyleRollingFile()
testDefaultRollingDefaultConfig()
testDefaultRollingUserConfig()
(so the other failures were cascading from this).
I prevented these fixtures 3 from running (by renaming the methods to start
with 'xtest' instead of 'test'), and ErrorStreamTest passed, and the
engine._Suite suite passed also.
Windows is pickier about deleting files that have been accessed, we've seen
that before, so this could just be a test cleanup issue...

> By default, derby.log grows without bounds if the derby.infolog.append
> property is set to "true". Setting this to "true" helps in a hands off
> production environment to ensure that if Derby restarts, the derby.log which
> might contain important information is not lost. On the other hand, when set
> the "true" the derby.log grows without bounds. This is problematic in a long
> running system.
> What is really needed is the ability to have a rolling derby.log file support
> where the maximum file size and maximum number of files can be specified.
> Derby has the ability to configure the location of the log file (ie.
> derby.stream.error.file) and also two methods of redirecting the error stream
> (.ie derby.stream.error.method and derby.stream.error.field). There is no
> standard implementation that supports a rolling derby.log however.
> This facility should be part of the core Derby system so that it works in
> both embedded and network server models.
