Hi, the FileWatchDog daemon can't be interrupted, the InteruptedException is ignored. I think, it might be better to accept an interruption - here stop observing the File.
I want to use something like DOMConfiguration#configureAndWatch() in my webapp. I can't use this, because this would cause many daemon-threads (of FileWatchDog). Every restart of my webapp causes a new thread and i can't interrupt this thread! My solution is: - an interruptable FileWatchDog - a ServletContextListener - starts log4j in "contextInitialized" - shutdown log4j in "contextDestroyed" and interrupts FileWatchDog What do you think about this?
