I wrote this article a year or so back, but wanted to link it here with some updated information to help you get a start with Log4Net so Hacksaw will actually do something for you... Read the article at: http://www.dillieodigital.net/Log4netQuickstart.html Feel free to post questions/comments about the article in the forums section here.
Greetings all! I know it has been nearly a year, but I've been busy with the day to day things, but have been able to keep Hacksaw running for more UI testing. Beta 0.9 has a complete UI rewrite to make better use of AJAX, colors, and web page real estate, I've also made it possible to simply type in the path to the log file you wish to load if you just need to "quick load" a log. Download and enjoy! As always, your comments/suggestions/feedback is ALWAYS appreciated.
v0.4 * Initial Release. v0.5 * Fixed bug when loading log files of 0 Kb size. * Added "open" filter option to filter log entries. * Added ability to change order of folder/log nodes. * Changed subtitle on manage log sources page to read "Log4Net" instead of "Log4J". v0.6 * Incorporated AJAX and AJAX Control Toolkit enhanced user navigation. * Moved TreeView to top by Log Source label and utilized AJAX to show/hide tree. * Added basic search feature. * Added keyword search feature. * Added paging navigation to top of the grid. * Removed expand/contracting of folder by clicking on the name. Must use +/- icons since there is a known issue with TreeViews embedded in CollabsiblePanel. * Changed overall color scheme to be less "dingy." * Added logo. Any donations of a better looking logo/scheme are greatly appreciated. 8^D v0.7 * Extended source tree to allow custom icons. * Restricted log files to allow certain extensions. Extensions are configurable via web.config. * Moved source tree as a collapsable sidebar. * Changed layout structure to accomodate CSS better. * Added log name to top display for easier reference of log being displayed. * Added auto-refresh feature to refresh log entries automatically. v0.8 * Converted NewLine characters to <br/> tags for proper viewing in the web environment. * Updated interface colors/icons for a "lighter" look. v0.9 * Complete rewrite of the user interface to make better use of AJAX, colors, and web page real estate. TreeView issue in IE has been resolved.
