windows systems) a process does not necessarily have an error stream
(at
least not initially, or when the redirection is closed eg. during
shutdown), which causes the appender to never rollover. i think this
should be fixed. apr_file_open_stderr() return APR_EINVAL when it
cannot
obtain the handle but the os returns success, so this could be
checked.
otherwise i would need to redirect stderr in all applications (and
leave
it open until the last log message) which does not seem to be right at
all.
(and yes, i am using the latest svn head)
thanks, christoph
Thanks for the report. In rev 613208, I've changed the code so that a
non-success return from apr_file_open_stderr does not throw an
exception, but just skips setting the child processes error stream.
Would appreciate your checking whether that addresses your concern,
otherwise please suggest a patch.
