What happens to logging events when the AsyncAppender buffer fills in non-blocking mode?
Issue
- We are using the AsyncAppender and have its blocking mode disabled:
<appender name="ASYNC" class="org.apache.log4j.AsyncAppender">
<errorHandler class="org.jboss.logging.util.OnlyOnceErrorHandler"/>
<param name="Threshold" value="INFO"/>
<param name="Blocking" value="false"/>
<appender-ref ref="FILE"/>
</appender>
- What will then happen if a thread tries to log something while the AsyncAppender's buffer is full?
Environment
- JBoss Enterprise Application Platform
- log4j
