In addition to the other suggestions, you could do this:
public class TildaFileAppender : FileAppender
{
public override string File
{
get
{
return base.File;
}
set
{
// replace the tilda with whatever value you want
base.File = value.Replace(
"~",
AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ApplicationBase);
}
}
}
You can also register your own patterns. The "appSettings" pattern
would get a value from AppSettings:
<file value="%appSettings{LogDirectory}/MyLogFile.log"/>
Or you could create a pattern that gets the logging directory some
other way:
<file value="%loggingDir/MyLogFile.log"/>
