Roy Chastain commented on LOG4NET-316:
--------------------------------------
The XML comments in the code should explain how (and when) to use the
DynamicPatternLayout so a rebuild of the SDK reference should provide the
needed documentation. Perhaps we could simply add it to one of the logging
examples show on the log4Net site.
Is there an FAQ on how to modify the webpages that are displayed on the site?
> Provide a Layout Pattern that is re-evaluated on each use

> Key: LOG4NET-316
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-316
> Project: Log4net
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Other
> Affects Versions: 1.2.11
> Reporter: Roy Chastain
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: features
> Fix For: 1.2.12
>
> Attachments: DynamicPatternLayout.cs
>
>
> The DynamicPatternLayout is a layout pattern that is re-evaluated on each
> use. It is appropriate to use instead of LayoutPattern to provide dynamic
> strings in headers and footers for appenders. Datetime is an example. Using
> the standard layout pattern results in the same datetime in each header and
> footer, while using DynamicPatternLayout results in timestamp of the
> header/footer creation.
> Example
> <layout type="log4net.Layout.DynamicPatternLayout">
> <param name="Header" value="%newline**** Trace Opened Local:
> %date{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff} UTC: %utcdate{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff}
> ****%newline"/>
> <param name="Footer" value="**** Trace Closed %date{yyyy-MM-dd
> HH:mm:ss.fff} ****%newline"/>
> </layout>
