You can set the filename in the appender to take a property
<appender>
...
<file type="log4net.Util.PatternString value="property{FileName}" />
</appender>
and set it in code via:
log4net.GlobalContext.Properties["FileName"] = logName;
or you can set it in code with something like this if you're dynamically
creating appenders:
log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender appender=
LogManager.GetRepository().GetAppenders()
.Where(appender=>appender.Name ==
source).FirstOrDefault() as log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender;
if(appender != null)
{
appender.File = logName;
appender.ActivateOptions();
}
