Hi,

I'm planning to use log4net to write events in a removable usb memory.

As you can suppose I have problems setting the right path for the logging file in the removable drive, there is no warranty about the drive where the memory will be mounted each time; and the application, depending on its state, it can be using different removable memories at different times.

I wonder if there is any way of setting the file path of the FileAppender or RollingFileAppender at runtime.

Thanks in advance,

Freddy.

 

 

 

Thanks Rennie, your solution will get in the list of options.

Thanks Josh, that's the kind of solution I'm looking for.

However I need to go a step beyond because I need several appenders logging in several directories (all of them set at runtime).

What I gonna do is to create an appender (subclassing RollingFileApplender) with a parameter which will be a class who implement a property 'LogDirectory' (As your 'Web.WebEnvironment.LogDirectory') and then create a class who return its own directory to each appender. If I do it well all the configuration needed will be placed in the configuration file.

I'll post again If I have success.
