Ron,

Many thanks for your answer. This was exactly what I was looking for.
This is an elegant solution!

The only question I still have is the following:
The link you pointed me to (Log4NetLogger.cs) had only a partial implementation of the ILog. This was not complicated to fill the gap. However, I was just asking myself why this class only partially implemented the interface.

Thanks again,

- José

I believe the pattern is called "abstract factory".

Your facade needs to perform logging using the methods on ILogger and passing in the Type of your wrapper class. See this class for an implementation and comments as to why its necessary:



http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/ibatis/trunk/cs/mapper/IBatisNet.Common.Logging.Log4Net/Log4NetLogger.cs?revision=293509&view=markup



IBatisNet (ibatis.apache.org), Sooda (www.sooda.org), and The Castle Project (www.castleproject.org) have abstracted logging libraries (to allow the user to switch between log4net, NLog, and some simple builtin loggers like a ConsoleLogger) that do similiar things. I recall there being similiar code on gotdotnet.com sonewhere too.

        Hello,



We are trying the Log4Net in our projects. However, for different reasons, we want to expose it to our developers through a Tracing/Error class facade.

Doing so, we face the following  problem:



Whenever an Appender print information about LocationInfo (File, line, Method,....). It will take information related to the caller of the Log4Net method (which is the facade in our case).



Is there any way to tell Log4Net not to walk more more level on the stackTrace so as to retrieve the information?



Thanks a lot!



- Jose
