hi all...
how come if i raname catalina.out to catalina.out.OLD and the create a
new catalina.out tomcat still writes to catalina.out.old?!
I believe that's really to do with the magic of the underlying
filesystem and not tomcat-related (think of filesystem names under a
unix-like operating system as pointers to actually memory (inodes) and i
think that's an analogy that works. Under windows it doesn't work like
that at all (hence no ln function) and instead you are prevented from
renaming a file with open handles).
more practically (and back in the world of tomcat) there is a useful faq
entry & discussion list entry here:
