Thorsten Schöning commented on LOGCXX-457:
------------------------------------------

It looks like the other failing tests are 3, which is somewhat similar to 6, 
and somethign in 5. Patching 3 the same way like 6 didn't resolve that issue, 
though. I guess the difference is with where the first log statement goes...

> timebasedrollingtest fails for seconds related filenames

> I'm building 0.11.0 and except timebasedrollingtest all tests pass. Using 
> process monitor I can see that in that test some files with timestamps in 
> their name with seconds resolution are not available as expected and form 
> looking at the code in my opinion this is a bug in the test and can't work at 
> all.
> Looking at the history, problems with this test have been reported before in 
> LOGCXX-206, where it first was simply disabled and enabled afterwards, but 
> without any noticable changes or documentation to the problem. It just seemed 
> to work now.
> But lets look at test 6: First, some filenames are build containing a 
> timestamp starting with "now" and each new filename is expected to be one 
> second in the future. But the important thing is that the names start with 
> "now"!
> Afterwards the tests waits always(!) for at least the next second, is than 
> writing to some files and checking the existence of the file names created 
> before with the expected timestamp names. Process Monitor reveals that the 
> first checked filename is always missing.
> But isn't that expected behavior, because the first fielname is created with 
> "now" in mind, explicitly not in the future, and one second is waited 
> afterwards, so the writes are in the future now? This looks like it can't 
> ever work ever and it's always only the first file missing.
> Besides that, there some code reduncany in that file, so I decided to create 
> this bug to document my findings, clean the code up a bit and deal with the 
> failing test afterwards.
