[jira] [Closed] (LOG4NET-420) Destructor of class called upon invoking XmlConfigurator.Configure

["Dominik Psenner (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-420?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Dominik Psenner closed LOG4NET-420.
-----------------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Problem

Destroying objects is the job of the finalizer. log4net has nothing to deal with that. The thing that matters is garbage collection, just in case you want to understand how that works.

>             Project: Log4net
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Core
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.10, 1.2.13
>         Environment: Linux (openSuse 12.2 i586), Mono 2.10.9
>            Reporter: Mat Arge

> If I run XmlConfigurator.Configure on an XML File after an instance of some class has been created, the destructor of that class is called for some reason. Here is my test code:
> using System;
> 	    
> 	    public class Test 
> 	    {
> 	      ~Test()
> 	      {
> 		Console.WriteLine("Test object finalized.");
> 	      }
> 	    }
> public static class M
> {
> public static void Main()
>   {
>     Console.WriteLine("Start");
>     Test test = new Test();
>     Console.WriteLine("configuring");
>     log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure(new System.IO.FileInfo("LogConfiguration.xml"));
>     Console.WriteLine("End");
>   }
> }
> Running this yields the output: 
> Start
> configuring
> Test object finalized.
> End
> I'm not really sure, if this is a bug in log4net or in mono
