It is possible. Example below
<appender name="RollingTrace"
type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="File"
value="${ALLUSERSPROFILE}\\Trace.txt" />
<param name="AppendToFile" value="true" />
<param name="MaxSizeRollBackups" value="4" />
<param name="MaximumFileSize" value="500000" />
<param name="RollingStyle" value="Size" />
<param name="StaticLogFileName" value="true" />
<param name="Threshold" value="TRACE" />
<param name="PreserveLogFileNameExtension" value="true"
/>
<layout type="log4net.Layout.DynamicPatternLayout">
<param name="Header" value="%newline**** Trace
Opened Local: %date{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff} UTC: %utcdate{yyyy-MM-dd
HH:mm:ss.fff} ****%newline" />
<param name="Footer" value="**** Trace Closed
%date{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff} ****%newline" />
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{dd
HH:mm:ss.fff} [%4t] %P{instance}::%M - %m%n" />
</layout>
</appender>
Just FYI, this will not work out of the box. The Header/Footer formatting will
work, but the time will not ever change with the release code. I had to update
some of the DynamicPatternLayout code to make it re-evaluate the date/time for
each file.
I am willing to share the changes, but I have NO IDEA how to use the source
control product to create the changes etc.

Subject: Header in new file
LS,
Is it possible to log a header message to a new file (using
the rollingfileappender)? (not a header before every log entry)
