I have a dll that I recently put log4net logging into. It is called
by many different executables. So I wanted to find out what is the
minimum I must do so that an exe will cause the logging to happen in
the dll.
Add reference to log4net
Add [assembly:log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFile="log4net.config",
Watch=true)] to the exe's assemblyInfo.cs
That should be it, right? We've referenced the dll, and called
configure using the assembly attribute.
However, this does not cause my dll to log. I find that only if I
declare a logger in the exe, only then will the logging in my dll
start.
Does this make sense? Am I missing something? I would like to know
the very minimum of code changes required to get logging to work.
Cheers,
Daniel

You need to make a logging call in the exe too (or at least define a logger, as you say):
"It is necessary that the first call to LogManager.GetLogger made during the process (or AppDomain) is made from the assembly that has the configuration attributes"
