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)
