[jira] [Created] (LOG4NET-675) DebugAppender does not suppress log writing if DEBUG symbol is not defined

Ken Varn created LOG4NET-675:
--------------------------------

             Summary: DebugAppender does not suppress log writing if DEBUG symbol is not defined
                 Key: LOG4NET-675
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-675
             Project: Log4net
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Appenders
    Affects Versions: 1.2.12
            Reporter: Ken Varn


My C# project uses the DebugAppender in addition to other appenders.  My intent was to only have logs written to the DebugAppender when the DEBUG preprocessor symbol is defined.  However, to my surprise, the DebugAppender still writes the Debug output even if DEBUG symbol isn't defined.  

I would think that the DebugAppender should follow the same rules as and the System.Diagnostics.Debug.Writexxxx methods in that the [System.Diagnostics.Conditional("DEBUG")]  attribute would be incorporated.
