Re: [Netcommon-developer] log4net properties in Common.Logging

Hi,

 

you still need to use

 

log4net.GlobalContext.Properties["BrokerID"] = 10

 

to set this property, even when using Common.Logging. CL only wraps the log4net API but doesn't implement its own logic. Although in the works, CL does not support vendor-neutral contexts yet.

 

Put the above line on the entry point of your application, in webapps this usually is Application_Start(), in clientapss put it as first method into Main()

 

hth,

Erich

Subject: [Netcommon-developer] log4net properties in Common.Logging

 

Does anyone know if there is an equivalent in Common.Logging (for .Net) to set properties for the log4net factory adapter? I have had great success when just using log4net by doing:

<appender name="FileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
<file type="log4net.Util.PatternString" value="logs\Log_%property{BrokerID}.txt"/>
<appendToFile value="false"/>
<rollingStyle value="Size"/>
<maxSizeRollBackups value="-1"/>
<maximumFileSize value="50GB"/>
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%date %-5level %logger - %message%newline"/>
</layout>
</appender>
and setting the property like:`log4net.GlobalContext.Properties["BrokerID"] = 10`

The file I end up with the looks like this: `Log_(null).txt` when using the common.logging to wire up log4net on the fly.
