Ron Grabowski commented on LOG4NET-135: --------------------------------------- Any time appendToFile is set to False (when either explicitly set or with rollingStyle=Once) a new file will be created when the application starts. The example is using rollingStyle=Size to illustrate that you can always roll a file even if you create a new one for each program start. Log files become difficult to manage when they get to be a couple hundred megabytes. Being able to roll those at regular intervals is always helpful. I'll see about making a simpler example. > Bad example code in documentation > --------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4NET-135 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-135 > Project: Log4net > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Appenders, Documentation > Affects Versions: 1.2.10 > Reporter: Ansgar Flack > Assignee: Ron Grabowski > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.2.11 > > > http://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/config-examples.html > The last code example under "RollingFileAppender" seems to be wrong. > Shouldn't it be: > <rollingStyle value="Once" /> -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
