Stefan Bodewig resolved LOG4NET-212.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
The immediate multi-threading problem is fixed with svn revsion 1169711
I've opened LOG4NET-312 to review whether we actually need ReusableStringWriter
at all in a future release.

> Key: LOG4NET-212
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-212
> Project: Log4net
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 1.2.10
> Environment: Windows, .NET 2.0 / 3.5, C#
> Reporter: Jerry van Leeuwen
> Fix For: 1.2.11
>

> Every once in a while I get the following exception:
> System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index and length must refer to a
> location within the string.
> Parameter name: length
> at System.String.InternalSubStringWithChecks(Int32 startIndex, Int32
> length, Boolean fAlwaysCopy)
> at System.Text.StringBuilder.ToString(Int32 startIndex, Int32 length)
> at log4net.Util.PatternConverter.Format(TextWriter writer, Object
> state) in xxx\Log4Net\src\Util\PatternConverter.cs:line 187
> at log4net.Layout.PatternLayout.Format(TextWriter writer, LoggingEvent
> loggingEvent) in xxx\Log4Net\src\Layout\PatternLayout.cs:line 1009

> Nemmco.Common.Initialization.Internal.NemLoggingAppender.Execute(DateTime
> lastTrigger, DateTime currentTrigger) in
> xxxInitialization\Internal\InitializationLogging.cs:line 765
> --snip--
> From my own investigation it looks like the problem occurs because the shared
> string buffer (from the m_formatWriter.GetStringBuilder() call) may end up in
> a state where its size is adjusted differently on separate threads, causing
> one thread to over-estimate the available length.
> I wonder if the re-use of a StringWriter / StringBuilder in this scenario
> actually outweighs the threading implications? The simplest fix would be to
> replace use of m_formatWriter with use of a local StringWriter /
> StringBuilder.
