Create new log files based on a variable value

Hi All,

 

I am using Log4Net.

 

Right now a log file is created based on the current date. So for each
day we have a log file containing all the debug statements.

 

We want to create a new log file based on a variable value in C#. For
each activity we have a requestId. So for each activity we need to
create a log file with the requestId.

 

Is it possible?

 

Regards,

Leo

You can try like this:

1. Set the file name dynamically using GlobalContext [you can ThreadContext
as well] property which the user who logged in.

2. Load the config file using XmlConfigurator.Configure(ConfigFile).

3. Now use GetLogger(type())

Please let me know if it works fine.
