Martijn Buijs created LOGCXX-464:
------------------------------------
Summary: TimeBasedRollingPolicy should append as configured on
rollover
Key: LOGCXX-464
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGCXX-464
Project: Log4cxx
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Appender
Affects Versions: 0.10.0
Environment: Win32, Linux
Reporter: Martijn Buijs
I'm using log4cxx 0.10.0 configured through xml to use a RollingFileAppender
that rolls/triggers using a TimeBasedRollingPolicy.
* The append property on the RollingFileAppender is true.
* The FileNamePattern of the TimeBasedRollingPolicy is set to use the following
pattern: {code}%d{yyyyMMdd.HH}.log{code}
This setup I use in an embedded system that is not directly connected to the
internet and has no battery powered rtc. This means that the system time is
always 1970-01-01 01:00:00 at boot, normally time is synchronized by the user
after boot.
In this case the following situation can occur:
# Current time is 2016-04-05 15:20:00, my application is logging to
{code}20160405.15.log{code}
# User restarts the system, time is now 1970-01-01 01:00, my application starts
at boot and starts logging to {code}19700101.01.log{code}
# User synchronizes time to 2016-04-05 15:25:00. Now the application truncates
{code}20160405.15.log{code} and start writing logs to it.
