In the project process, you must use the log function. I have made a set of logs for my projects, but I still use other mature dll, such as log4.

Log4-related documents are really many and comprehensive, but I still want to repeat this for the purpose of understanding new things.

First, put a small Demo on it.

<appender name="TraceLogFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">  <file value="Logs\trace.txt" />  <MaxSizeRollBackups value="20" />  <StaticLogFileName value="false" />  <DatePattern value="yyyyMMdd'.txt'" />  <RollingStyle value="Size" />  <MaximumFileSize  value="10MB"/>  <appendToFile value="true" />  <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">    
There are five main components: Appenders, Filters, Layouts, Loggers, Object Renders
1. Appenders
Defines the log output mode. You can configure Filters and Layout to filter logs and output formats.
There are many output methods. Here we mainly introduce the most commonly used methods in several projects.

 

 
  
 
   
 
    
AdoNetAppender
 
    
Record logs to the database
 
   
 
   
 
    
FileAppender
 
    
Output logs to files
 
   
 
   
 
    
RollingFileAppender
 
    
Write the log to the file as a rollback File
 
   
 
   
 
    
SmtpAppender
 
    
Write logs to emails
 
   
 
  

 
 
2. Filters
The filter can filter out the content output by Appender.

 

 
  
 
   
 
    
DenyAllFilter
 
    
Prevent all log events from being recorded
 
   
 
   
 
    
LevelMatchFilter
 
    
Only log events of the specified level are recorded.
 
   
 
   
 
    
LevelRangeFilter
 
    
Events with a log level within a specified range are recorded.
 
   
 
   
 
    
LoggerMatchFilter
 
    
Logger name match.
 
   
 
   
 
    
PropertyFilter
 
    
The message is recorded only when it matches the specified property value.
 
   
 
   
 
    
StringMathFilter
 
    
The specified string is matched by the message.
 
   
 
  

 
 
3. Layouts
It is used to control the output format of Appender, which can be linear or Xml. however, one Appender can have only one Layout. after this is configured, you do not need to customize a format in the program.
The most commonly used PatternLayout is the custom format. Next, let's take a look at the format and meaning in ConversionPattern.
<ConversionPattern value="%d [%t] %-5p %c - %m%n" />

 

 
  
 
   
 
    
A
Appdomain
 
    
Name of the application domain that raises the log event
 
   
 
   
 
    
C (lower case)
Logger
 
    
Name of the Logger object that Records log events
You can use the precision specifier to control the output level of the Logger name. By default, the output full name is used.
Note that the control of the precision character starts from the right. For example, the logger name is "a. B. c", and the output model is% Logger {2}To output "B. c"
 
   
 
   
 
    
C (uppercase)
Class
Type
 
    
Full name of the class that raises the log request
You can use the precision control character. For example, the class name is "log4net. Layout. PatternLayout ",
The format model is% Type {1}Output "PatternLayout ". (It also starts from the right .)
Warning:Will affect the performance.
 
   
 
   
 
    
D
Date
 
    
Record the current local time. For example, % d {HH: mm: ss, fff} or % d {dd MMM yyyy HH: mm: ss, fff}
We recommend that you use a custom time format.
 
   
 
   
 
    
Exception
 
    
Exception Information
An exception object must be stored in the log. If the log event does not contain any exception object, nothing can be output.
After the exception output is completed, a line feed will be followed. A line feed will be added before the output exception, and the exception will be placed at the end.
 
   
 
   
 
    
F
File
 
    
Name of the source code file in which a log request occurs
Warning:It is only valid during debugging. Calling local information affects performance.
 
   
 
   
 
    
U
Identity
 
    
Name of the current active user (Principal. Identity. Name ).
Warning:Will affect the performance. (% Identity returned during the test is empty .)
 
   
 
   
 
    
L (lower case of L)
Location
 
    
 
Method for triggering a log event (including the namespace and class name), as well as the source file and row number.
Warning:Will affect the performance. If there is no pdb file, there is only the method name, and there is no source file name and line number.
 
   
 
   
 
    
L
P
Level
 
    
Log Level
 
   
 
   
 
    
Line
 
    
The row number of the log.
 
   
 
   
 
    
M
Message
 
    
Messages provided by applications to logs
 
   
 
   
 
    
M
Method
 
    
Method Name When a log request occurs (only the method name is used ).
Warning:Will affect the performance.
 
   
 
   
 
    
X
Mdc
P
Property
Propertites
 
    
Special attribute of the output event. For example:% Property {user}Output the user attribute.
The attribute is added to the time by loggers or appenders. There is always a default attribute "DE <log4net: HostName.
DE <% PropertyWill output so attributes.
 
   
 
   
 
    
N
Newline
 
    
Line Break
 
   
 
   
 
    
R
Timestamp
 
    
The number of milliseconds from program startup to event occurrence.
 
   
 
   
 
    
T
Thread
 
    
The thread that generates a log event. If there is no thread name, use the thread number.
 
   
 
   
 
    
W
Username
 
    
WindowsIdentity of the current user. (For example, HostName \ Username)
Warning:Will affect the performance.
 
   
 
   
 
    
Utcdate
 
    
The UTC time when the log event occurred. DE <can be followed by a date format and enclosed in braces.
DE <example:% Utcdate {HH: mm: ss, fff}Or% Utcdate {dd MMM yyyy HH: mm: ss, fff}.
If utcdate is followed by nothing, the ISO8601 format is used.
The date format is the same as that used in the ToString method of the DateTime class in. Net.
In addition, log4net has three Formatter formats. They are represented by "ABSOLUTE", "DATE", and "ISO8601 ".AbsoluteTimeDateFormatter,DateTimeDateFormatterAndIso8601DateFormatter.
For example:% Date {ISO8601}Or% Date {ABSOLUTE}.
Their performance is better than that of ToString.
 
   
 
   
 
    
X
Ndc
 
    
NDC (nested diagnostic context)
 
   
 
   
 
    
%
 
    
% Output a percent sign

4. Loggers
Logger is a component that interacts directly with the application. Logger only generates logs, and then records the Appender referenced by it to the specified place, and controls the output format with Layout.
Logger provides multiple methods to record one log message, and multiple Logger may exist at the same time. Each instantiated Logger object is maintained by log4net as a naming entity.
Log4net uses the inheritance system. Two Logger, a and a. B, and a are the ancestor of a. B. Each Logger inherits the attributes of its ancestor.
The log levels are as follows:
OFF> FATAL> ERROR> WARN> INFO> DEBUG> ALL.
 
5. Object Renders
This is my understanding of Object Renders. It tells logger how to convert an object into a string and record it in the log. (You may notice that the interface defined in ILog receives an Object parameter instead of a String parameter .)
For example, if you want to record the Orange object to the log, logger will only call the Orange default ToString method. Therefore, define an OrangeRender class to implement the log4net. ObjectRender. IObjectRender interface, and then register it. Then logger will know how to record Orange to the log.
However, I have not tested it. For more information, see the document.
