[jira] [Resolved] (LOG4J2-2024) TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy not work if no log written in the next hour

["Ralph Goers (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2024?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Ralph Goers resolved LOG4J2-2024.
---------------------------------
    Resolution: Not A Bug

By design, TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy only determines if it is time to roll over when it receives events to log. If you require a rollover to occur every hour then you should use the CronTriggeringPolicy instead of the TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy.
