If instead of deleting the oldest line, you just leave it and let t= he file grow, it will work fine, at the expense of a small amount of disk usag= e. One could, in principle, put in a timer based reload, but without also implementing some sort of file locking strategy, this would lead to race conditions or partial reads, so I am hesitant to implement it. Is there a reason why you can't keep the old data and let the file grow? --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.=
