[jira] Created: (LOG4NET-276) RollingFileAppender - File Location

RollingFileAppender - File Location
-----------------------------------

                 Key: LOG4NET-276
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-276
             Project: Log4net
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Appenders
         Environment: Windows
            Reporter: jrichview


I specified only the file name with no path so it, naturally, wrote the file to the "current directory" which turned out to be an unexpected folder.  Googled, but didn't see an easy way to configure a RollingFileAppender (or FileAppender) to write the output file to the same folder as the log4net config file. 

It would also be nice to be able to specify that the file be written to whatever folder the log4net assembly is running from.  I would've assumed this would be an easy/common config setting, but I couldn't find it anywhere.

I'm still learning so if the feature already exists, please post.
