----------------------------------------
Hi Dimitri,
Find them attached, feel free yourself to use. (log4net 2.0.8 is a dependency
for this lib, binary built using .NET 4.5.2)
Configuration is very similar to the RollingFileAppender, _type_ is the
important part e.g.:
{code:java}
<appender name="RfAppender"
type="Log4Net.Appender.Misc.CompressorRollingFileAppender, Log4NetAppenderMisc">
<file type="log4net.Util.PatternString" value="e:\logdir\logfile.log" />
<appendToFile value="true" />
<rollingStyle value="Date" />
<datePattern value=".yyyyMMdd" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%date (%logger) [%-5level] {%thread} - %message
%exception %newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
{code}
After rolling you will find a file like "logfile.log.20200214.gz".
Best regards and good luck:

> Hi Guys,
> I used _log4j_ in the past, and its {{RollingFileAppender}} has the
> possibility to compress the rolled file. It would be a nice feature in
> _log4net_ too, because it is much easier to handle the rolled files in
> compressed format. After a lot of searching I did not find a built-in
> solution in _log4net_ for compression, I decided to implement it. I wanted to
> do it using the {{RollFile}} method, but I was not able to do it, because the
> {{RollFile}} method is not _virtual_ this time. So the solution was for me: I
> copied the {{RollingFileAppender}} into a custom namespace, made its
> {{RollFile}} _virtual_, and wrote a subclass which had a customized
> {{RollFile}} method. At least a _virtual_ {{RollFile}} method would be useful
> too.
> Thanks:
> Ferenc
