Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-609:
------------------------------------

There are a lot of changes here and I am not sure I can adequately review it just from the patch. I think I will have to apply it and see what happens. One thing I see though is it looks like you are going to cause stdout and stderr to be closed, which you can't do.

> {{org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.status.StatusConfiguration}} allows you to specify a destination such as "out", "err" or a file name. If specifying a file, that file stream is used when creating a {{StatusConsoleListener}} that is added to the {{StatusLogger}}. Those {{StatusLogger}} listeners are never cleaned up when, for example, the {{XmlConfiguration}} is reconfigured or when the {{LoggerContext}} is shut down (e.g. in {{InitialLoggerContext.apply()}}). This leaves open file handles and is the source of the failing test {{FileOutputTest}} on Windows.
