You could write your own pattern converter to expose the a DateTime
object:
<header type="log4net.Util.PatternString">
<converter>
<name value="dateTimeNow" />
<type value="Company.Project.Logging.DateTimePatternConverter,
Company.Project" />
</converter>
<conversionPattern value="[BEGIN LOGGING AT %dateTimeNow{hh:mm}]%n" />
</header>
I agree that that's a lot of code for just wanting to print out the
current date and time :-/
Perhaps a built-in pattern called %now could be added that accepts a
DateTime format:
%now{d}
%now{hh:mm:ss}
