FAQ for getting the fully-qualified name of a class
---------------------------------------------------
Key: LOG4NET-157
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-157
Project: Log4net
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation
Environment: N/A
Reporter: Chris Jerdonek
Priority: Minor
The FAQ here--
http://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/faq.html
states that the following are equivalent ways to obtain a logger:
(1) private static readonly ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(Foo));
(2) private static readonly ILog log =
LogManager.GetLogger(System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);
However, these constructs seem to behave differently when the classes involved
are generic. When generic classes are involved, I believe the former generates
a different logger for each type parameter combination, while the latter
generates a different logger if and only if the number of type parameters is
different.
For example,
TestClass<T, S> can yield "TestClass`2[[System.Int32..." in the former case and
"TestClass`2" in the latter.
