http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10185 AsyncAppender.close() does not call close() on attached appenders Summary: AsyncAppender.close() does not call close() on attached appenders Product: Log4j Version: 1.2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Appender AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I sent a message to the log4j-dev mailing list, which Ceki replied to. Here is his reply: "You are correct to observe that AsyncAppender.close does not close embedded appenders. The rationale behind this behavior is that embedded appenders might be attached somewhere else, so closing them when AsyncAppender is closed would be somewhat heavy handed and possibly incorrect. This "foresightful" reasoning is doubtful because attaching the same appender to more than one logger is often problematic and consequently discouraged. It would much simpler if AsyncAppender.close also closed embedded appenders. I would appreciate if you could enter a bug report so that the problem is not forgotten. (I admit its a problem.)" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
