issue with java.util.logging.FileHandler limit

[s ravi chandran]

hi
i am having some trouble in java.util.logging.FileHandler limit parameter. what i want is to rotate the log file after 10mb of data has been logged.

this is what i am trying :

handler = new FileHandler("mylog.log",
	                   1048576,
	                   1, true);

but i don't know why, but log files created are having max size of 11kb, and then it keeps decreasing ; 10kb, 9kb ....

what is going wrong here?
