Dominik Psenner commented on LOG4NET-342: ----------------------------------------- Yes it should stay focused on being the interface to log messages, but there's already the IsEnabled stuff and therefore people expect a IsConfigured. LogManager.GetRepository().Configured is easy enough for someone who knows it, but hard to find and since people are lazy, they look at the ILog instance and subsequently ask silly questions. I agree that there's still work to be done on the ConfigurationMessages, but that's should probably be coped with a separate issue. > Add a way to prevent silent failure > ----------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4NET-342 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-342 > Project: Log4net > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Joachim Zobel > Assignee: Dominik Psenner > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.2.12 > > > I spent most of the day trying to find out why logging is not working on my > dev system but not on test. There should be a way to force error reporting by > throwing (possibly unhandled) exceptions. This could be done by adding a > required flag to the appenders and another flag that requires a least one > working appender. > I am not sure about a good way to implement this, I would just love it if my > favourite tool to end silent failure could stop failing silently. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
