INTRODUCTION Provides a simple logging abstraction to switch between different logging implementations. There is current support for log4net (1.2.10 and 1.2.9), NLog, Enterprise Library logging 3.1 and Enterprise Library logging 4.1. Additionally Common.Logging comes with a set of base classes making integration of any log system a breeze. 2. KNOWN ISSUES No known issues 3. RELEASE INFO Release contents: * "bin" contains the Common.Logging distribution dll files * "doc" contains reference documentation. * "shared" contains shared nant build scripts * "modules" contains the sourcecode for Common.Logging.XXXX modules * "redist" contains redistributable assemblies like log4net for your convenience The Common Infrastructure Libraries for .NET are released under the terms of the Apache Software License (see license.txt). 4. BUILDING For building Common.Logging library, you need to Enterprise Library 3.1 and Enterprise Library 4.1 installed. After installation of the Enterprise Library packages from Microsoft but before you build you must copy the necessary binary references from their installed location(s) into the required location within the source tree so that the required references are properly resolved during the build: Enterprise Library 3.1 Files required from c:\program files\Microsoft Enterprise Library 3.1 - May 2007\bin\ (assumes default installation location of Enterprise Library 3.1): * Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Common.dll * Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.dll * Microsoft.Practices.ObjectBuilder.dll Copy the above 3 files into C:\netcommon\lib\Entlib\net\2.0\ (assumes root of source repo is c:\netcommon\). Enterprise Library 4.1 Files required from c:\program files\Microsoft Enterprise Library 4.1 - October 2008\bin\ (assumes default installation location of Enterprise Library 4.1): * Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Common.dll * Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.dll * Microsoft.Practices.ObjectBuilder2.dll Copy the above 3 files into C:\netcommon\lib\Entlib\net\3.5\ (assumes root of source repo is c:\netcommon\). From the commandline execute c:\netcommon>build-package.cmd 5. CONFIGURING in your app.config or web.config add the lines <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <configuration> <configSections> <sectionGroup name="common"> <section name="logging" type="Common.Logging.ConfigurationSectionHandler, Common.Logging" /> </sectionGroup> </configSections> <common> <logging> <factoryAdapter type="Common.Logging.Simple.TraceLoggerFactoryAdapter, Common.Logging"> <arg key="level" value="ALL" /> </factoryAdapter> </logging> </common> ... </configuration> see module documentations for available factoryAdapters and their configuration values
