Unhandled SecurityException exception for FileIOPermission while loading
configuration file
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: LOG4NET-65
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-65
Project: Log4net
Type: Bug
Components: Core
Versions: 1.2.9
Reporter: Nicko Cadell
Assigned to: Nicko Cadell
Fix For: 1.2.10
If the calling application does not have the PathDiscovery FileIOPermission a
SecurityException is generated from the XmlConfiguratorAttribute.Configure
method. This is called from the first LoggerManager.GetLogger in a calling
assembly.
The exception should be caught as we may potentially be injecting this
exception into user code's class initialisation phase which the user would find
unexpected.
An example stack trace for the exception is:
[SecurityException: Request for the permission of type
'System.Security.Permissions.FileIOPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.]
