Hello Tim. If you will consider to update the time codes in the video description, I believe that they have to be in chronological order. Meaning that they have to start from zero:zero and there cannot be any other time code before that. That is, if you care for your video timeline to be split up in chapters :) I noticed, that if you have other time stamps before zero:zero mark, KZbin wont do that for you. Example: Your video "Top 10 Hidden Gems in Visual Studio"

One of the best tutorial out there on log4Net. Instead of just teaching on how to make it work by some magic configuration and code, this tutorial went into details on how things work and how to customize it to our requirements. That gives a lot of confidence and comfort in using this framework than copying the configurations from random sites. As others mentioned, the fonts are too small and if you are watching it on smaller device (even my 13" laptop display is small), you will have hard time watching it. I had to zoom my browser to 300%, and since most of the action is in top left screen that worked, but was awkward.

Such a great tutorial! still relevant today. I struggled a little with the database connection string before realizing 3 things I'd done wrong in App.config: (1) the data source, I don't think I have something called "ApplicationDB", instead I was able to use "(LocalDb)\MSSQLLocalDB", (2) the initial catalog - since I created my own database from scratch I needed to supply the name "MyLogger", (3) a series of typos (resulting from copy & paste) meant that my parameter names didn't match the ones in the stored procedure. Persistence was key, and I was rewarded in the end. Thanks Tim!

Great tutorial. Thanks for posting! In a future article or video it would be great to see how to use Log4net in a multi-project solution where more than one project can be set as the startup (eg, a project to run as console and another to run as a windows forms, while other projects exist for the data layer, etc.). What I have found so far with this is that I have to duplicate both the LogHelper class as well as the the App.Config settings in each projects that can be set as the startup, which is less than ideal. If I try to relocate into a common project referenced by both, logging does not work at all. I don't know if this is a true limitation of Log4net or something I have not done correctly. Again, thanks for posting and I plan to view some of your other videos as well!

Thank you! Great tutorial. Getting the AdoNetAppender properly configured took a little effort including getting it to work with my local SQL server installation. SQL connection type and connection string values were tricky to get right depending on whether specific features were enabled or not. The samples on the Apache Log4net page and some experimentation got me to the finish line.

Thanks again for your nice tutorial. I have a small problem that you may have an answer for. I am interested in the last part of the tutorial for using global context properties. I have a filed named "state" in sql database, and I want to fill it when I am logging. I have these codes at the begining of the program SystemState systemState = new SystemState(States.Start); log4net.LogicalThreadContext.Properties["state"] = systemState; // it has public overrrid ToString() I set systemState properly when the state of the system changes. for example: systemState.Set(States.Initialize); // it sets a public property. actually it is equivalent to systemState.State = States.Initialize; DefinedStates.InitializationState(); // it does some things Log.Debug("here comes my message"); Everything is fine if I set the buffer size to 1. However, when I change the buffer size to 100, the state filed in the sql db is filled with the last assigned value! Notice that I do not set the context property every time. If I do, things are fine. It looks log4net only reads the global context property when it is going to write in sql db. any idea how to force log4net to read the property before writing that to sql? or maybe i am making a mistake somewhere. Thanks

I think some down in the comments asked similar question. Actually I am working on a application which generates invoices. Each invoice passes through hundreds of rules before calculating the amount. If I would have a separate log file for each invoice, then it would be easy for troubleshooting like which rule has passed which has failed and how the final value of amount would have calculated.

Great tutorial. Many thanks! It would be a great favor to our eyes if you used a bigger font size. Even without that it's awsome. Thanks again.

Thanks for this very useful video, I use NLog framework but not anymore, they are very similaire but log4net is more mature, Excuse my english but I wanna say another thanks from Morocco, Casablanca :) I read your article before in codeproject but this video is more useful.

Hey @IAmTimCorey, As of now, would you still recommend Log4net over NLog? And if so, what would be the main reason? Thanks!
@IAmTimCorey
@IAmTimCorey 5 жыл бұрын
It depends on the situation. You choose the one that you feel most comfortable with and that has the features you are looking for. Log4net has a lot of appenders. You might find that NLog doesn't write to something you want. Or you may not. I am not an advocate of saying one option is the "best". I usually recommend one for most situations but I want people to know that their situation might be different than the one I demo.

Once again great tutorial, easy to follow in step by step examples. One exception, adding customs fields, works, but I am having difficulty getting them to work with the AdoNetAdapter. Don't get me wrong, it is working, I am just not getting the string as seen by the ConsoleAdapter. It displays correctly, but the AdoNetAdapter is showing more of an object representation. Could you add something about that then this would be 5 stars plus. Thanks

As it happens, I found my issue. when using the %property{newfield} parameter make sure you use the curly braces, I had normal parenthesis when causes it to represent the object structure. Curly braces just shows that property.

can i use the log4net classes instead of the config file. also i need to store the username in the logs when the app runs in the cloud
@IAmTimCorey
@IAmTimCorey 4 жыл бұрын
You can use the class but then it is harder to change at runtime. As for getting the username, check out the link in the description to my written article. It has a section about capturing that information.

Hey Tim, Thanks for the video. It is very helpful. I want to create a class library with would contain the log4net and all the configuration settings. I would like to add reference to this class library from any of the existing/new applications. I would like to use ADONETAppender, but due to different environments we have like Dev, Test and Prod I would like to log the info into different backend systems we have. Do you have any ideas or suggestion on how to accomplish this?

Well, you store the log name in the config file so you could edit that name each time at runtime.

Hi Sir, Tutorial was exceptionally superb and well explained. Is there any way that we can get an ID in case of AdoNetAppender, so that we can pass exception id to user ??
@IAmTimCorey
@IAmTimCorey 5 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure what you are looking to do. You don't get information out of a logging program into C#. Information goes the other way. C# already knows about the exception.

Hi Timothy Corey, I am separating out my config files with external references. With regards to the connectionString file, is there a way to reference a specific connection string within another file from the ADONet Appender?

Hey Timothy, I actually figured it out and thought I'd share. I was using an earlier version of the .dll Once I used - 1.2.15.0, I was able to use the property in my log4net.config

Thanks for this great explanation. I had no idea about log4net before this video. Just I have a question. Maybe I missed maybe it is stupid question. But I wonder, Is there any way to log "login or logout" processes with log4net. I think I can use adonetAdapter with different sp and table but I have to use filter (just like INFO). again but after I want to log "logout" logs to different table and then I think, thinks are getting messy. Can you give me a suggestion or small explanation. Thanks again.

@IAmTimCorey
@IAmTimCorey 7 жыл бұрын
I believe I used the Bing Code Snippets extension, which I believe is no longer supported. Anymore I usually just use the standard Visual Studio intellisense so I don't have that installed anymore. I did find a link to it. It says it works in VS2013 only but I'm not sure if that means nothing lower or only 2013. Here is the link: marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=BingDevCenter.BingCodeSnippets

Maybe I haven't gone through the video enough yet, but at 41:45 when you copy and paste the layout for the 3rd time, does XML not have a concept of variables like code? where I can just do that part one time across that specific XML document and just call the variable?
