@ -269,15 +269,16 @@ module, supports rotation of disk log files.
|
|||
You can use the *maxBytes* and *backupCount* values to allow the file to
|
||||
:dfn:`rollover` at a predetermined size. When the size is about to be exceeded,
|
||||
the file is closed and a new file is silently opened for output. Rollover occurs
|
||||
whenever the current log file is nearly *maxBytes* in length; if *maxBytes* is
|
||||
zero, rollover never occurs. If *backupCount* is non-zero, the system will save
|
||||
old log files by appending the extensions '.1', '.2' etc., to the filename. For
|
||||
example, with a *backupCount* of 5 and a base file name of :file:`app.log`, you
|
||||
would get :file:`app.log`, :file:`app.log.1`, :file:`app.log.2`, up to
|
||||
:file:`app.log.5`. The file being written to is always :file:`app.log`. When
|
||||
this file is filled, it is closed and renamed to :file:`app.log.1`, and if files
|
||||
:file:`app.log.1`, :file:`app.log.2`, etc. exist, then they are renamed to
|
||||
:file:`app.log.2`, :file:`app.log.3` etc. respectively.
|
||||
whenever the current log file is nearly *maxBytes* in length; if either of
|
||||
*maxBytes* or *backupCount* is zero, rollover never occurs. If *backupCount*
|
||||
is non-zero, the system will save old log files by appending the extensions
|
||||
'.1', '.2' etc., to the filename. For example, with a *backupCount* of 5 and
|
||||
a base file name of :file:`app.log`, you would get :file:`app.log`,
|
||||
:file:`app.log.1`, :file:`app.log.2`, up to :file:`app.log.5`. The file being
|
||||
written to is always :file:`app.log`. When this file is filled, it is closed
|
||||
and renamed to :file:`app.log.1`, and if files :file:`app.log.1`,
|
||||
:file:`app.log.2`, etc. exist, then they are renamed to :file:`app.log.2`,
|
||||
:file:`app.log.3` etc. respectively.
