Summary
Attempts retry when the RQD log rotation fails on Windows with error
[WinError 32] The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.Rationale
On Windows, log rotation may fail if the log file is temporarily locked by another process. Although this scenario was previously handled by silently ignoring the failure, it could still lead to logs not being rotated as expected.
Changes
If log rotation fails, it is now retried up to three times, with a minimal delay between each attempt. This approach helped us on our end limiting warning messages.
The implementation uses a strategy pattern, to prevent hard-to-maintain OS-dependent if/else logic cases for future platform-specific specializations.
