Scott Wilson created LOGBACK-1286:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Add discardWhenFull config option to AsyncAppender
Key: LOGBACK-1286
URL: https://jira.qos.ch/browse/LOGBACK-1286
Project: logback
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: logback-classic
Affects Versions: 1.1.11
Reporter: Scott Wilson
Assignee: Logback dev list
The current AsyncAppender implementation blocks once the queue is full. In some
situations the user would rather lose log messages than block on the log call.
It would be very helpful to make this configurable.
My current workaround is to create a class that extends AsyncAppenderBase and
overrides the append() method and calls blockingQueue.offer() instead of put().
Suggested solution:
# Add a configurable attribute such as discardWhenFull that defaults to false
# In AsyncAppenderBase.append() use blockingQueue.offer() if discardWhenFull
is true
