No price. Only the header and footer as surfaced in the new class, so the other properties resort back to their normal processing. In reality, the ConversionPattern for the log output is already dynamic, but header and footer were not treated the same.
Ron G. actually gave me the idea of how to do this. Do I run a "diff" against an empty file to produce the patch or is there another method? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Roy Chastain -----Original Message----- From: Stefan Bodewig [mailto:bode...@apache.org] Sent: Monday, September 12, 2011 11:48 To: log4net-dev@logging.apache.org Subject: Re: Possible new code - DynamicPatternLayout On 2011-09-12, Roy Chastain wrote: > I have a new class that I implemented several years ago.

Maybe there is room for something in between where only Header and Footer are dynamic? > I do not have test cases.
