## Configured-logger-file-rotation-failures
Read the number of rotation failures recorded by a `ConfiguredLogger` file sink. This helper is useful when runtime rotation behavior should be observed operationally.
### Interface
```moonbit
pub fn ConfiguredLogger::file_rotation_failures(self : ConfiguredLogger) -> Int {}
```
#### input
- `self : ConfiguredLogger` - Config-driven runtime logger whose rotation-failure counter should be inspected.
#### output
- `Int` - Number of recorded rotation failures.
### Explanation
Detailed rules explaining key parameters and behaviors
- File-backed sinks report their recorded rotation-failure count.
- Queued file sinks forward the metric from the wrapped file sink.
- Non-file sinks return `0`.
- The counter is cumulative until reset.
### How to Use
Here are some specific examples provided.
#### When Need Rotation-specific Diagnostics
When support output should reveal whether rotation is failing:
```moonbit
let count = logger.file_rotation_failures()
```
In this example, the configured logger exposes a focused metric for rotation-path health.
#### When Validate Runtime Rotation Tuning
When changed rotation settings should be checked in operation:
```moonbit
ignore(logger.file_rotation_failures())
```
In this example, callers can observe whether runtime rotation changes introduced problems.
### Error Case
e.g.:
- If the configured sink is not file-backed, the method returns `0`.
- If callers need both rotation config and failure metrics, they should combine this helper with `file_rotation_config()` or `file_state()`.
### Notes
1. Use this helper when diagnosing file rotation reliability.
2. It is especially relevant when runtime rotation policy can change after startup.
