If you are concerned about races, when you are not looking fast enough, then there is no way to avoid those.
I want to find a way to detect logfile rotation, so the file gets rotated out the way and a new file is created.
I have an fd open to the file, which will never increase in size because the file has been deleted, but my app doesn't yet know that.
Is there a way to detect this? Regards, Graham --
