Jon S Akhtar commented on LOG4NET-174:
--------------------------------------

I just added a CLIENT define, and placed it in the correct 7 locations usually 
"!NETCF && !SSCLI && !CLIENT".

This builds a client profile version of the assembly. I think that it follows 
the methodology used to handle the other platform cases, so I don't really see 
it being a major problem design-wise.


> log4net.dll references assemblies that are not part of the .NET 3.5 SP1 
> client profile

>          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.
