Strange behaviour
I have just started with log4net, and am having some difficulty in
getting things going.
I have code:
Imports log4net
Imports log4net.Config
Module Module1
Private log As log4net.ILog =
log4net.LogManager.GetLogger(System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType)
Sub Main()
Debug.WriteLine("Starting")
' Open log
Dim filename As String = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory &
"autoraw.exe.config"
log4net.Config.DOMConfigurator.Configure(New IO.FileInfo(filename))
log.Debug("Starting application")
End Sub
End Module
and when run I get no output file, and the config file is deleted.
If I enable internal debugging, though, I get output file with my
"starting application", and the config file remains.
I assume that I am doing something wrong, but I can't see what.
Can anyone shed light on this?
Regards
David

BEFORE any namespace:
[assembly:
log4net.Config.DOMConfigurator(ConfigFileExtension="log4net")]
Using your filename (below) log4net will then obtain
it's config info from autoraw.exe.log4net
As an alternative, add the following directive:
[assembly: log4net.Config.AliasDomain("autoraw")]
This tells log4net to look in your config file. BTW -
This is all from the example code included with the
distribution...

Yes!!!!! That works - no more deleted config file. Thank you!
But.....
So how do I then use this config file? I have been trying:
Dim filename As String = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory &
"autoraw.exe.config"
log4net.Config.DOMConfigurator.Configure(New IO.FileInfo(filename))
but can I replace "autoraw.exe.config" with ageneric string?

File->New
scroll down to bottom
add app.config file type
add in whatever config info you need
VS will automatically generate the correct file

It seems that the config file is being wiped out when I start the
application, so perhaps it is a problem with my VS setup. Anyone any ideas?

Is anyone there?
Is any more info needed?

Thanks, Cort, I will give it a try.

Download DebugView from www.sysinternals.com <http://www.sysinternals.com/>
, it will show you the trace messages that are output while log4net is
starting up. When I have had problems with no logging, that usually tells
me enough information to know why.
