> This looks good to me; if it fixes the "my program crashes because I'm logging after calling exit()" problem with no bad side > effects it sounds good to me and could be something that we enable by default. Any thoughts? @vopl could you tell us what your need is? "logging after calling exit()" will currently produce output if the user function is added to the on-exit list after Log4cxx statics (so it is called before Log4cxx destructors are called). AFAIK the on-exit list order for module-level statics is a determined by the module placement order a link time (so it is not easily controlled). No output is produced after the APRInitialiser destructor is called. I do not think subsequent logging attempts will cause a crash as the Logger objects no longer belong to a LoggerRepository and Logger methods take an early exit. Failing to flush buffers is the one problem with this PR that comes to mind, and this is appender/configuration dependent. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
