问题
I created a class for writing thread-safe log in a text file using CriticalSection.
I am not an expert of CriticalSection and multi-threading programming (...and Delphi), I'm definitely doing something wrong...
unit ErrorLog;
interface
uses
Winapi.Windows, System.SysUtils;
type
TErrorLog = class
private
FTextFile : TextFile;
FLock : TRTLCriticalSection;
public
constructor Create(const aLogFilename:string);
destructor Destroy; override;
procedure Write(const ErrorText: string);
end;
implementation
constructor TErrorLog.Create(const aLogFilename:string);
begin
inherited Create;
InitializeCriticalSection(FLock);
AssignFile(FTextFile, aLogFilename);
if FileExists(aLogFilename) then
Append(FTextFile)
else
Rewrite(FTextFile);
end;
destructor TErrorLog.Destroy;
const
fmTextOpenWrite = 55218;
begin
EnterCriticalSection(FLock);
try
if TTextRec(FTextFile).Mode <> fmTextOpenWrite then
CloseFile(FTextFile);
inherited Destroy;
finally
LeaveCriticalSection(FLock);
DeleteCriticalSection(FLock);
end;
end;
procedure TErrorLog.Write(const ErrorText: string);
begin
EnterCriticalSection(FLock);
try
WriteLn(FTextFile, ErrorText);
finally
LeaveCriticalSection(FLock);
end;
end;
end.
to test the class I created a form with a timer set to 100 milliseconds:
procedure TForm1.Timer1Timer(Sender: TObject);
var
I : integer;
aErrorLog : TErrorLog;
begin
aErrorLog := nil;
for I := 0 to 1000 do begin
try
aErrorLog := TErrorLog.Create(FormatDateTime('ddmmyyyy', Now) + '.txt');
aErrorLog.Write('new line');
finally
if Assigned(aErrorLog) then FreeAndNil(aErrorLog);
end;
end;
end;
the logs are written, but occasionally raise I/O Error 32 exception on CloseFile(FTextFile) (probably because in use in another thread)
where am I doing wrong?
UPDATE:
after reading all the comments and the answers I have totally changed approach. I share my solution.

回答1:
Instead of checking TTextRec(FTextFile).Mode <> fmTextOpenWrite you should check whether your file is closed or not, and if it is not closed then you close it.
Try replacing the mentioned check with this code:
if TTextRec(FTextFile).Mode <> fmClosed then
CloseFile(FTextFile);
Edited:
This has nothing to do with antivirus locking the file. This is just a simple mistake in the destructor.
File is already opened in open write mode, original code is closing the file only when it is not in open write mode - so it is never closing the file.
Hope this explains where the mistake has happened.
As for the overall design of the logger's class. This was not the question, questions was simple, and I've provided a simple and working solution.
I think that if Simone would want us to teach him how to design logger class then he would ask for it.
回答2:
If you want an error log class, where multiple threads can write to a log file, it is correct to protect the writing method with a critical section.
Now, since you will only instantiate one of those error logging objects in your application, there is no need to protect the destructor method with a critical section.
The location of your error log file should reside in the application data folder.
The I/O error 32 is: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
The reason for this sharing violation could be in your application or an external application. Writing inside the application directory could trigger some antivirus protection for example. Or your application is holding the file open in several places with different file modes.
Your test is flawed in multiple ways:
- Instantiate the error log class once at application start, and destroy it when the application closes.
- Write to your error log from different threads, not from multiple iterations within a timer event.
- A timer event should only execute a program sequence for a short duration.
A try / finally sequence is structured like this:
anObject := TObject.Create; try // Do something with anObject finally anObject.Free; end;
