log4net.dll references assemblies that are not part of the .NET 3.5 SP1 client
profile
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: LOG4NET-174
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-174
Project: Log4net
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Builds
Affects Versions: 1.2.10
Environment: .Net 3.5 SP1
Reporter: Kuno Meyer
.Net 3.5 SP1 / VS 2008 SP1 has a new build feature: the "client-only framework
subset" switch in the projects settings, meaning that the developer can specify
that only a limited subset of the .Net framework is used. This helps in
reducing the size of installers that include the .Net framework.
Unfortunately, log4net.dll (1.2.10) has references to System.Web, which is not
part of this "client-only framework subset". This leads to the following
compilation warning:
<<<
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\Microsoft.Common.targets : warning
MSB3253: The referenced assembly "log4net, Version=1.2.10.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=1b44e1d426115821, processorArchitecture=MSIL" has a dependency
on "System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" which is not listed as part of the "Client"
TargetFrameworkSubset. If this dependent reference is required, you may get
compilation errors.
>>>
My proposal is to split log4net.dll into a new log4net.dll (core+generic
appenders) and into a separate appender DLL (log4net.server.dll) for deployment
on servers only.
