Hello Nitin,
There are two ways to do that. The first is using filters on the main log
appender. The filter would redirect messages to a different converter and
it will all be done within the configuration. *This option requires that
the special data text will have an identifying property* such as a log
level or a unique string in the text. Read about log4net filters to find
out more.
If you do not have a special property or text you can use to filter the
messages, you can use the second approach, where you create a separate
logger and appender for the data:
<appender type="...FileAppender" name="SpecialDataAppender">
<file value="specialdatafile"/>
<layout>
<conversionPattern value=" special pattern for data "/>
.....
</appender>
<logger name="specialDataLogger">
*<additivity value="false"/>*
<appender-ref ref="SpecialDataAppender"/>
</logger>
Then, use this logger in a method that would dump the data to the log file:
DumpData:
log = log4net.....GetLogger("specialDataLogger");
foreach (var item in specialData)
log.Info(item);
This will give you a separate log file for the special data.
However, I assume that you want it incorporated into the main log file,
right?
If so, you will have to change both appenders: that of the main file and
that of the special data file, to use "minimal lock". Here's an example:
<appender name="MainLogFile" type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender">
<file value="*myapplog.log*" />
<appendToFile value="false" />
*<lockingModel type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender+MinimalLock" />*
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="..."/>
</layout>
</appender>
<appender name="*SpecialDataAppender*" type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender">
<file value="*myapplog.log*" />
<appendToFile value="true" />
*<lockingModel type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender+MinimalLock" />*
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value=" special data pattern "/>
</layout>
</appender>
This will incorporate the special data text into the main log file.
Hope this answers your question.
