> I have an application in which I'm using all async loggers. When I stop the LoggerContext, there're still some events waiting in disruptor's buffer and when it tries to execute them the context is already closed and thus those events are lost. In the case of a RollingFileAppender, I get an IOException because the outputStream has already been closed.
> As a debugging technique, I did an Appedder decorator that looks like this:
> {code:java}
> final class StopConditionSafeAppenderWrapper extends BaseAppenderWrapper
> {
>     private final LoggerContext loggerContext;
>     StopConditionSafeAppenderWrapper(Appender delegate, LoggerContext loggerContext)
>     {
>         super(delegate);
>         this.loggerContext = loggerContext;
>     }
>     @Override
>     public void append(LogEvent event)
>     {
>         if (!loggerContext.isStarted()) {
>              return;
>         }
>         super.append(event);
>     }
> }
> {code}
> With the help of a debugger, I could verify that when the append method was invoked the loggerContext was started but then by the time the exception occurred it was closed.
> It checked the code at LoggerContext#stop() and saw that there's code to prevent disruptor from taking new events once a stop() has been invoked, but there's no code to wait for the ring buffer to be fully consumed before actually stopping.
