Joe created LOG4NET-526:
---------------------------
Summary: Add appSetting conversion pattern to PatternString
Key: LOG4NET-526
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-526
Project: Log4net
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 1.2.15
Reporter: Joe
Priority: Minor
A common requirement is to be able to define a base directory for log files
that can be used by multiple FileAppenders. In this way, the directory only
needs to be changed in one place.
Today the typical solution is to use a PatternString with a property that is
set in code before log4net is configured, e.g.
<file type="log4net.Util.PatternString"
value="%property{LogDIr}MyFile.log"/>
Suggested feature is to allow a conversion pattern that reads the base
directory name from an appSetting, e.g.:
<file type="log4net.Util.PatternString"
value="%appSetting{LogDIr}MyFile.log"/>
