I am interested because the documentation for the Fix properties and methods is so poor. I do not know when I am supposed to use them or what I am supposed to use them for, or what is used internally and what is designed for public use.
From: Dominik Psenner [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 30, 2013 10:55 AM To: 'Log4NET User' Subject: AW: What does the MemoryAppender's Fix() method do? Because the FixVolatileData method is now protected and invoked in the setter of the Fix property. I am wondering why you're so interested in the core internals of log4net? This goes far beyond a simple question about how to use log4net. :) Von: Rob Richardson [mailto:[email protected]] Gesendet: Montag, 30.

But I note that in the link below, it says that FixVolatileData() is now considered obsolete. Why is that? From: Dominik Psenner [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 30, 2013 10:05 AM To: 'Log4NET User' Subject: AW: What does the MemoryAppender's Fix() method do? Because we are caching the LoggingEvent beyond the lifetime of the Append() method we volatile data in the logging event must be fixed. Otherwise they would no longer be available for later use. That is documented further here: http://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/sdk/log4net.Core.LoggingEvent.FixVolatileData_overload_1.html Sorry for being incomplete in the first message. :)
