Log4Net and .NET 4.0

There have not been any log4net release for some time. This has not presented any problems with 3.5, but what about .NET 4? Has anyone heard any rumblings about a release to support the version 4 framework when it comes out?

It seems that the current log4net trunk supports the .NET Framework 4.0. This support has just not yet been shipped with a release.

Here are our notes about getting log4net working with VS2010 with C# and .Net 4.0. It basically follows the tseonet post but in a few simple steps. We also set security level to 1 instead of commenting AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers, but either option appears to work.

Hope this is useful to someone: http://www.charlestonsw.com/configuring-log4net-with-vs2010-and-net-4-0/

"With .NET 4. Projects you can still use log4net. You will have to change the target platform to ".NET Framework 4" on the project..."

Is correct. But you need to put the line

<startup>
   <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>
</startup>

to the bottom of the configuration file (after the log4net setup):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
  <configSections>
    <section name="log4net" type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net" />
  </configSections>
  <log4net>
    <appender name="FileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender">
      <file value="logfile.txt" />
      <appendToFile value="true" />
      <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
        <conversionPattern value="%date: %-5level – %message%newline" />
      </layout>
    </appender>
    <root>
      <level value="DEBUG" />
      <appender-ref ref="FileAppender" />
    </root>
  </log4net>
  <startup>
    <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>
  </startup>
</configuration>

Tested with log4net 1.2.10.0 You need to put the line: [assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(Watch = false)] in Assemblyinfo.cs (I forgot that)

With .NET 4. Projects you can still use log4net. You will have to change the target platform to ".NET Framework 4" on the project.

There is a JIRA entry for .NET 4.0 and Client Profiles () but it is not slated for release in 1.2.11.

There is a related (unanswered) question with a comment that suggested you can simple run the 1.2.10 source through the VS2010 upgrade process.

There is an issue in the tracking system for 4.0 support.
If you need it, you can compile the version yourself with the latest release - it will compile.
