Kamlesh Pandey commented on FLUME-2994:
---------------------------------------

[~jkushmaul] This patch works fine for tailing a file on windows. But  I 
observed that when I set an application log file for the taildir source it does 
not perform the rotation as per the log4j configuration. In log4j config I gave 
the max file size as 100KB but the log file kept growing beyond 100KB.

> The current implementation of flume-taildir-source does not support windows.
> The only reason for this from what I can see is a simple call to 
> Files.getAttribute(file.toPath(), "unix:ino");
> I've tested an equivalent for windows (which of course does not work on 
> non-windows).  With an OS switch we should be able to identify a file 
> independent of file name on either system.
