Thank you for the reply. I'll look into subclassing, but I am not convinced that there is a way to fix this: The basic problem is that one viewer has a file open, and the logger would like to start a new file with the same name. What would work, is to generate file names based on (say) the current day, as in Logfile-20110502.txt. This design avoids the problem that we're rolling over to files of the same name, but it is a different beast from RotatingFileHandler. That said, I think this issue should be reopened: RotatingFileHandler is a part of the standard library, and Windows is a supported platform. If the logger crashes because somebody is looking at a log file, this is a valid bug. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11270> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
