---------------------------------------
Summary: Circular reference in ErrorHandlerTestCase
Key: LOGCXX-517
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGCXX-517
Project: Log4cxx
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Robert Middleton
Assignee: Robert Middleton
For the smart pointer implementation, when GCC's sanitizers are
enabled(fsanitize=leak), all tests pass except for the ErrorHandlerTestCase,
which uses the FallbackErrorHandler.
Likely this is due to a circular reference with the shared_ptrs.
This may be cleanly done with an API-breaking change. The issue is that when
using the DOM configurator, as soon as the XML file loads, it will attempt to
open an invalid file, triggering the FallbackErrorHandler. The
FallbackErrorHandler then removes the appender, and adds a new one. It seems
that it should either propagate this error up, or replace the returned
appender, instead of trying to replace the appender.
