Description Mike Mansell CLA 2010-01-06 14:13:40 EST 
Build Identifier: R3_5_1

When checking for the log file size, the EclipseLog code directly accesses the java.io.File.length method. However, this checks permissions. Instead, it should be using the secureAction handler. Patch provided with this small change.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable a SecurityManager
2. Attempt to log to the EclipseLog
