[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (LOGMGR-54) org.jboss.logmanager.handlers.AsyncHandler.AsyncTask should call flush when queue runs empty

[David Lloyd (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/LOGMGR-54?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12735829#comment-12735829 ] 

David Lloyd commented on LOGMGR-54:
-----------------------------------

The behavior should probably be configurable though, in the case where we legitimately do not want to flush children unless our buffer is absolutely full.  I think defaulting to flush on queue-empty is probably reasonable though.

> When using the org.jboss.logmanager.handlers.AsyncHandler in combination with handlers that use autoFlush=false it happens that output stalls when queue runs empty.
> A workaround is to set autoflush=true, however this introduces a flush always, even if there are more records in the queue, which render the flush useless.
> An optimization is to invoke flush() on the handlers if the AsyncTask's queue ran empty - since then there is nothing else to do anyhow.
