Dominik Psenner commented on LOG4NET-272: ----------------------------------------- Is this still important? Either way I would give this issue a month and then just close it as wont fix. > Problems in dynamic file naming with multiple appenders > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4NET-272 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-272 > Project: Log4net > Issue Type: Task > Components: Appenders > Affects Versions: 1.2.10 > Environment: OS: Windows XP > Programming Environment: VB.NET > .NET Framework 3.5 > Appender Type: RollingFileAppender > Reporter: Ranjith Nair > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.2 Maintenance Release > > Original Estimate: 48h > Remaining Estimate: 48h > > I have 3 appenders in my config file for creating 3 different types of logs. > I am using dynamic naming of file in each of the 3 appenders by setting the > global context properties. In some cases, i need to set the log file name > dynamically for just 1 appender. When i set the file name for just 1 > appender, it creates another file named "null" with no data in addition to > the actual logfile whose name has been set dynamically. > <appender name="RollingFileAppenderV1" > type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender"> > <file type="log4net.Util.PatternString" value="Logs\%property{applog}" /> > . > . > . > <appender name="RollingFileAppenderV2" > type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender"> > <file type="log4net.Util.PatternString" value="Logs\%property{dblog}" /> > . > . > <logger name="Logger1"> > <level value="DEBUG" /> > <appender-ref ref="RollingFileAppenderV1" /> > </logger> > <logger name="Logger2"> > <level value="DEBUG" /> > <appender-ref ref="RollingFileAppenderV2" /> > </logger> > In the VB.NET code i set the filename as : > log4net.GlobalContext.Properties("applog") = "file1.log" > Dim logobj as log4net.Ilog = LogManager.GetLogger("Logger1") > logobj.debug("test") > In this case it creates "file1.log" and also another empty file with name as > "null". This happens only when i am setting either of the appenders filename > at runtime. > Could you please check and let me know the issue behind this. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
