Just curious about log4net log details

Am using Log4Net to log my application,everything works fine to me, just wanna understand little bit more about the log details.

Here is my log:

2012-05-22 17:11:44,602 **[11]** ERROR Shell Exists - ignoreThe remote server returned an erro:
2012-05-29 15:48:11,876 **[32]** ERROR Shell Exists - ignoreThe remote server returned an error: (550) File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access).

Here is my config:

<appender name="ErrorAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender,log4net">
  <appendToFile value="true" />
  <maxSizeRollBackups value="30" />
  <maximumFileSize value="5MB" />
  <rollingStyle value="Size" />
  <staticLogFileName value="false" />
  <lockingModel type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender+MinimalLock" />
  <file value="c:\Error.log"/>
  <param name="AppendToFile" value="true"/>
  <filter type="log4net.Filter.LevelRangeFilter">
    <param name="LevelMin" value="ERROR"/>
    <param name="LevelMax" value="ERROR"/>
  </filter>
  <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
    <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d [%t] %-2p %c %method - %m%n"/>
  </layout>

Just want to know what is [11] or [32] in my log file after time stamp, what it refers here ? hope some one will update my knowledge.

That will totally depend on what pattern you provided.

But the default pattern has a [%thread], and that refers to the thread id.

This is what the pattern in many examples looks like:

<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
   <conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger - %message%newline" />
</layout>

That [%t] is the thread id, alright.
