---------------------------------

             Summary: Application hang up during exit on Windows
                 Key: LOGCXX-451
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGCXX-451
             Project: Log4cxx
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Configurator
    Affects Versions: 0.11.0
         Environment: Windows
            Reporter: John.Rembo


I use such code in one of my DLL in application:
  xml::DOMConfigurator::configureAndWatch("log4cxx.xml");
  PropertyConfigurator::configureAndWatch("log4cxx.properties");
At this point watchdog threads are created and they are pushed to some 
container:
void DOMConfigurator::configureAndWatch(const std::string& filename, long delay)
{
        File file(filename);
#if APR_HAS_THREADS
                if( xdog )
                {
                        APRInitializer::unregisterCleanup(xdog);
                        delete xdog;
                }
        xdog = new XMLWatchdog(file);
        APRInitializer::registerCleanup(xdog);   < == watchdog pushed to 
container here
        xdog->setDelay(delay);
        xdog->start();
#else
    DOMConfigurator().doConfigure(file, LogManager::getLoggerRepository());
#endif        
}

void APRInitializer::registerCleanup(FileWatchdog* watchdog) {
    APRInitializer& instance(getInstance());
#if APR_HAS_THREADS
    synchronized sync(instance.mutex);
#endif
    instance.watchdogs.push_back(watchdog);
}

But APRInitializer is a Singletone class which is allocated static.
APRInitializer& APRInitializer::getInstance() {
  static APRInitializer init;
  return init;
}

Then my application stops and Dynamic Library, which uses log4cxx is unloaded 
in _CRT_INIT (which is called from DllMain) function destructor for 
APRInitializer object is called => and called destructors for watchdog objects.

FileWatchdog::~FileWatchdog() {
   apr_atomic_set32(&interrupted, 0xFFFF);
   try {
        thread.interrupt();
        thread.join();
   } catch(Exception &e) {
   }
}

In thread.join() function WaitForSingleObject is called and we have deadlock, 
because when some thread execute DllMain code all other threads are slept by 
system.
So, one thread wait when another will stop, but another thread is slept.

So now it is impossible to call configureAndWatch from Dll.
Can you fix it?
