Jean-Francois Beaulac commented on LOG4NET-553: ----------------------------------------------- Uploaded another patch containing the most recent proposal. Its my pleasure to be able to contribute a little to a great project we use everyday :) > DebugAppender configuration should give the possibility to disable outputting > loggerName as category > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4NET-553 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-553 > Project: Log4net > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Appenders > Affects Versions: 2.0.7 > Reporter: Jean-Francois Beaulac > Attachments: log4net-DebugAppenderCategory2.patch, > log4net-DebugAppenderCategory3.patch, log4net-DebugAppenderCategory.patch, > OutputCategoryParam-DebugAppender.cs.patch > > > The DebugAppender always uses the > {{System.Diagnostics.Debug.Write(string,string)}} overload passing in the > loggername as the category parameter. > It should be possible to omit the category parameter if having the loggername > as category is not desired. > Attached is a patch implementing the desired new feature, which would be > activated by configuration: > {code:xml} > <appender name="DEBUG" type="log4net.Appender.DebugAppender"> > <outputCategory value="false"/> > <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout"> > <conversionPattern value="%-5level: %message%newline"/> > </layout> > </appender> > {code} > In my patch, the outputCategory parameter defaults to true, so the behavior > doesnt change unless the new configuration is used. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
