Logging to files

["White, James M" <ja...@boeing.com>]

Currently, we log our exceptions to a log file and everything works
well.  But, what happens when log4j can't do this?  Will it
automatically write to System.err?

Basically, it's my task to handle the rare situations when log4j doesn't
write to our log file, which would be to write to System.err.  All
comments are appreciated.

Thanks,

James

If it couldn't write to a file it would write that fact to std. error
but not the logs themself.  You could do some sort of backup appender.
