RE: does log4j is synchronized?

["Keys, Andrew T" <an...@bankofamerica.com>]

I spent many hours trying to figure this out.  If you are using separate JVM's that write to the same log file then the operating system will not be able to handle the resource sharing.  The JVM's don't know of each other and are trying to access a log.txt resource at the same time.  In version 1.4 Sun put some class's to help java share system resources.  I had to get each JVM to write to separate logs to fix my issue under 1.3.1.

Subject: does log4j is synchronized?


	
 i find out through my log that threads may corrupt each other log ,
creating unreadable log.
 could it be ? doesn't log4j is safe thread ?
 (form my research , the java.io.Writer 'write()' methods are synchronized ,
and log4j FileAppended uses a subclass as writer)

What classes are those?
