I'm wondering if it's bad practice to use log4net directly on my domain object... I'll be using ELMAH for my exceptions on the ASP.NET MVC application side, but for some informational purposes I'd like to log some data about the domain model itself. Given the following domain object: public class Buyer { private int _ID; pub...

I'd like to encrypt the connection string used by the log4net AdoNetAppender. Can this be done without encrypting the entire appender? Dion Olsthoorn blogged about setting the connection string in code, but I'd prefer to do it in a config file that is dedicated to logging as it will be using a different database to the rest of the appl...

By design Log4net only outputs a message to the console if it can't be configured correctly (http://log4net.sourceforge.net/release/1.2.0.30316/doc/manual/faq.html#reliable). Logging is a critical part of my application, so want to know if Log4net was configured correctly. I've not been able to find any way to get the info from Log4net,...
I am trying to configure Log4Net purely by code. But, when I did with a minimal configuration, I was flooded by logging messages from NHibernate and the fluent interface. So, what I am trying to do is simple. Tell Log4Net to show me onyl log messages of my single class. I toyed around a little bit, but can't figure it out... Can anyone...
I'm trying to log the input and output of a particular method to the database. I'd like to have this information in separate columns. I've investigated the PatternLayout and it seems that it only caters for a single %message parameter, meaning that if you do: log.Debug("This is a message"); then log4net sees "This is a message" as t...

The current version of log4postsharp uses Postsharp 1.0 which has some limitations. Does anyone know if there is somewhere a compiled version of log4postsharp that uses Postsharp 1.5 available? ...
I often find myself adding either concatonated strings or using a string formatter in my debug statements in log4net and log4j should I surround these debug statements with an "if debug" block to stop myself from wasting resources by processing these parameters even though the debug statement will not be printed out? I would assume that...
My ASP.NET site is using Integrated Authentication with impersonation turned off. I have added a "%username" to my "conversionPattern" in the web.config to add the user name to each logging entry. However this will use the application pool identity's user name, and not the current visiting user's name. Any ideas on how best to do this?...
