RollingFileAppender doesn't - Is there a bug report on this?

The RollingFileAppender in the CVS head doesn't roll (ever).  I've
looked at it a bit and found that the entire rollover() method is
commented out, so it can't

work.  The history on the file shows that this change was made for
LOGCXX-10, but nothing was ever made after that to fix the commented out
code.

 

Should I generate a bug on this, or is there one already there that
covers this?

Yes, http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGCXX-52

log4j 1.3 introduced a new framework for rolling file appenders and 
emulatations of log4j 1.2 RollingFileAppender and 
DailyRollingFileAppender are written in terms of the new 
org.apache.log4j.rolling.RollingFileAppender and its plugable triggers 
and rolling strategies.  I expect to port the log4j 1.3 RFA framework 
over to log4cxx which should be made easier now since the encoding work 
makes the log4cxx WriterAppender more similar to log4j's.
