Hi all,
I found this code in a stack overflow question/answer:
private static readonly ILog logger =
LogManager.GetLogger(MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);
PatternLayout layout = new PatternLayout(@"%date %-5level %message%newline");
FileAppender appender = new FileAppender();
RollingFileAppender appender = new RollingFileAppender(); // why same
variable used for second "new" object?
appender.Layout = layout;
appender.File = "c:\log.txt";
appender.AppendToFile = true;
appender.MaximumFileSize = "1MB";
appender.MaxSizeRollBackups = 0;
appender.Threshold = Level.Error;
appender.ActivateOptions();
log4net.Config.BasicConfigurator.Configure(appender);
I am confused by the line I commented - why would anyone use the same variable
twice as this code shows? It would seem that the "FileAppender appender = new
FileAppender();" line (above the commented line) is pointless, but maybe the
code is not complete, or there is something about log4net that I'm not getting.
Here is the stack overflow link:

Thanks in advance,
