When you say multiple assemblies, I assume you mean multiple processes? Logging this way is not suggested as for each log message you have to reopen the file. If you have really light logging, it would probably be ok...
Look at the LockingModel: http://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/sdk/log4net.Appender.FileAppender.LockingModel.html >From http://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/config-examples.html: This example shows how to configure the appender to use the minimal locking model that allows multiple processes to write to the same file. <appender name="FileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender"> <file value="${TMP}\log-file.txt" /> <appendToFile value="true" /> <lockingModel type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender+MinimalLock" /> <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout"> <conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger [%property{NDC}] - %message%newline" /> </layout> </appender> On Wed, Sep 2, 2009 at 3:28 AM, mattyboy<[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi Christian, > > I'm actually looking to achieve the opposite, I want to know if it's > possible to get several assemblies to log to the SAME log file.
