DUDE! *You the man* :-)
So for you to provide what you did (which btw confirmed so much of what I
when through) was amazing.
You see *you* had the experience of setting up log4net in web application
for the benefit of nHibernate.
I started down this experience without that experience to draw on and where
I was time time and again Exception = "hibernate.dll [cannot compile
mapping file]" & InnerExecption = null.
That was it. Nothing more.
And when I tried to work with log4net it didn't work or provide any
additional information.
So then what for me? I was in a rock and a hard place. "Please show the
InnerException?" The innerException is NULL period.
Please use log4net. Log4net sucks too because it doesn't work! Darn it!!!
I only wish I could Ctrl-Z undo all the way back out to the version of the
code that started me off on this google group days ago.
But only as of this morning I have log4net working now. And in a couple of
instances I can replicate the samples from your error log files.
I'll assume I had multiple typos in file-path &/ namespace &/ class &/
assembly ~ like a perfect storm ~ and the only error message I could
achieve was "can't compile mapping" - PLEASE!
I don't know what the challenge is but I would like to think the top level
exception message could be:
"can't find your file (probably because of a typo in ...)" fix that then
"can't find the assembly (probably because of a typo in ...)" fix that
then
"can't find the namespace (probably because of a typo in ...)" and so
on.
Why can't the most important and probably always the most frequent and
relevant error be the first dataum presented, the outer exception message?
Maybe it is a java thing but I rarely need to go into innerexceptions
anymore.
