Constructor & Destructor Documentation

__init__()

def compat_logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler.__init__	(		self,
			filename,
			mode = "a",
			maxBytes = 0,
			backupCount = 0
	)

Open the specified file and use it as the stream for logging.

By default, the file grows indefinitely. You can specify particular
values of maxBytes and backupCount to allow the file to rollover at
a predetermined size.

Rollover occurs whenever the current log file is nearly maxBytes in
length. If backupCount is >= 1, the system will successively create
new files with the same pathname as the base file, but with extensions
".1", ".2" etc. appended to it. For example, with a backupCount of 5
and a base file name of "app.log", you would get "app.log",
"app.log.1", "app.log.2", ... through to "app.log.5". The file being
written to is always "app.log" - when it gets filled up, it is closed
and renamed to "app.log.1", and if files "app.log.1", "app.log.2" etc.
exist, then they are renamed to "app.log.2", "app.log.3" etc.
respectively.

If maxBytes is zero, rollover never occurs.
