Description

When using %d for ConversionPattern the application crushes. this is caused by use of non reentrant time functions
gmtime and localtime

the solution is to replace these functions with gmtime_r and localtime_r for posix builds.

struct tm tmResult;
const tm * tm = ::gmtime_r(&time, &tmResult);

i did it and it works fine.

i am going to run some more tests on other sun machines and i hope i can help more in the future.

Thanks for the great logging system
