You can use the PatternFileAppender to log to a separate file for each
logger. This appender is not built into the log4net assembly but is
included as an example in the log4net download.
examples\net\1.0\Appenders\SampleAppendersApp\cs\src\Appender\PatternFil
eAppender.cs
You will need to compile this into an assembly (one of your existing
assemblies or a new one).
Then you can configure the appender like this:
<appender
name="PatternFileAppender"
type="SampleAppendersApp.Appender.PatternFileAppender,
SampleAppendersApp">
<file
value="%logger.%date{yyyy-MM-dd}.log" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout"
value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger [%ndc] - %message%newline"
/>
</appender>
Update the type of the appender to point to the type in your assembly.
