Nicko Cadell resolved LOG4NET-110.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Invalid
Assignee: Nicko Cadell
The equivalent effect can be achieved using the log4net.Util.PatternString, for
example:
<file type="log4net.Util.PatternString" value="%env{APPDATA}\file.log" />
The PatternString is more powerful and extensible than the environment
expansion. It is not our intention to increase the use of
Environment.ExpandEnvironmentVariables in log4net where the same may be
achieved via PatternString.
Many thanks,
Nicko

> Project: Log4net
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Appenders
> Affects Versions: v.Next
> Environment: Windows XP, 2000, 2003, .NET 1.0, 1.1 & 2.0
> Reporter: Ulrich Proeller
> Assigned To: Nicko Cadell

> I have added a small patch to Util/SystemInfo.cs to the method
> ConvertToFullPath():
> // Expand Environment variables
> path = Environment.ExpandEnvironmentVariables(path);
> This enables log4net to expand environment variables like %AppData% or
> %AllUsersProfile%.
> I think, this is quite useful if you don't want to log to the application
> directory.
