You might want to show that example (just to make it more generally usable "as
is"), with the variable bound in single-quotes, e.g.:
<Extension fileop>
Module xm_fileop
# Check the size of our log file every hour and rotate if it is
larger than 1Mb
<Schedule>
Every 1 hour
Exec if (file_size('%LOGFILE%') >= 1M)
file_cycle('%LOGFILE%', 5);
</Schedule>
# Rotate our log file every week on Sunday at midnight
<Schedule>
When @weekly
Exec file_cycle('%LOGFILE%', 5);
</Schedule>
</Extension>
If you attempt to put this in place, to prevent "expand forever" logging on a
Windows system (using the current document example), then you immediately get
bitten by the spaces in the typical Program Files folder, and (of course) if
you then think of quoting it, and make the mistake of starting with
double-quotes, then all of those backslashes get "eaten", or in some cases, get
interpreted as newline characters. The above syntax should work in either OS
environment, but saves someone the headache of the Windows-related issues.
FWIW.
