Joe created LOG4NET-550: --------------------------- Summary: Logging recursively from an Appender not supported for NET_4_0 and MONO_4_0 Key: LOG4NET-550 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-550 Project: Log4net Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Affects Versions: 2.0.7 Reporter: Joe Priority: Minor
When NET_4_0 or MONO_4_0 is defined, log4net uses a ReaderWriterLockSlim with LockRecursionPolicy.NoRecursion. As a result, any attempt to log recursively from within an Appender fail: a System.Threading.LockRecursionException is thrown and swallowed by the log4net Core. Other versions use a ReaderWriterLock and allow recursion. The following branch adds a unit test that shows this inconsistent behaviour. The test fails for NET_4_0 or MONO_4_0 and passes for other versions: https://github.com/JJoe2/log4net/tree/RecursiveLogging -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
