What kind of trust level does your app run under? That's going to affect where you can write files I think (and probably your access to their paths--e.g., you can create a file in IsolatedStorage under most trust levels, but I don't think you're allowed to see where exactly that file is stored).
For catastrophic stuff (e.g., not-otherwise-handled exceptions), consider putting up a web service your client can call that will stash info in your own db & alert you as appropriate.

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Shane Courtrille Sent: Thursday, April 05, 2007 10:19 AM To: ADVANCED-DOTNET@DISCUSS.DEVELOP.COM Subject: [ADVANCED-DOTNET] Smart Client Logging I'm working on a small test smart client application. My next step is to try to implement logging so that if a client has a problem I can get details on it. I'm using the log4net framework so I have a lot of options as to how to log. My first thought is to try logging to file and providing the user with the location of the file. Does anyone have any guidelines on logging from a smart client? I've looked around for guidelines for saving files from a smart client and haven't seen anything.
