I'm using a RollingFileAppender on Solaris with Hotspot 1.5. The disk

problem.
If a Logger tries to write, say with log.info("message") but the
disk is
full, does the method just return immediately? If the method does
not return
immediately, then can that be configured?
Thanks
The attempted write should throw a IOException within
org.apache.log4j.helpers.QuietWriter which is then caught and handled
by outputting a message to the console on the first failure
(OnlyOnceErrorHandler). Unless there is a custom error handler
involved, it should not block waiting for disk space to come available.
