Logger::getLogger(__FILE__) fails in release builds

[jorrit de vries <jo...@student.hu.nl>]

Hello,

After a long search for why my application hang in Release builds when using code like:

LoggerPtr logger(Logger::getLogger(__FILE__))

I would like to know why this is. Could anybody explain this to me?


Best regards,
Jorrit

Does the code still fail if __FILE__ is replaced with a string  
constant?  I don't know any circumstance where __FILE__ should  
evaluate to NULL, but getLogger(NULL) likely isn't well-behaved.  Do  
you have any stack-trace info?  Do the unit tests pass with the  
compiler?

I am sorry, I forgot to mention I am using Visual Studio 2005 SP1 and a two months old SVN version of log4cxx.

p.s.: Using __FILE__ as a logger name would make your logger names  
dependent on the developer's choice of compilers and/or root  
directories.  Many compilers provide the full path for __FILE__ (but  
not apparently VC8 unless you set a compatibility option).
