Hello!

Please tell me how to enable log rotation in std.logger.filelogger? Without log rotation, it seems that the std.logger.filelogger is useless, because it will quickly take up all the free space on the hard drive.

In theory, you can close the file in the logger, rename it, etc., open a new one, but the manual says that this will lead to undefined behavior. So how do you rotate the log?

Best regards,
Vitalii

I suppose you write a custom logger for that or take an already written one from code.dlang.org

Happy coding!

Please don't take this as an insult, as I've also written my own logging library lol. But I have a feeling that our efforts would be better spent in improving the standard library's implementation rather than making our own logger. Hopefully this will become easier in the future as issues are migrated to github and more effort is put into organization.

D is just a learning project (hobby one) and I do not have time to go through the process to add codes to standard library. However, it is www.boost.org/LICENSE_1_0.txt license so feel free to get it and add it to standard one

Cheers
