How does the gin close the log file? about gin HOT 3 OPEN

Do you want to turn off the logging stream at runtime?

Your requirement is strange, please describe it in detail.

from gin.

@RedCrazyGhost when working with files, the construction is usually used

    // Logging to a file.
    f, _ := os.Create("gin.log")
    defer f.Close()
    gin.DefaultWriter = io.MultiWriter(f)

I don't want to disable the logging stream at runtime, I'm just not sure if the file is actually closed when the application exits

from gin.

I see what you mean, you want to say whether the log stream of gin will be automatically closed when the program is closed.

When the application is closed, memory and handles are freed up, and there is no problem with file hogging.

If you are concerned, check out the official example on how to stop the application properly.

Graceful restart or stop
