-----------------------------------
Summary: The BufferingAppenderSkeleton LossyEvaluator sends the
discarded event not current buffer as documented
Key: LOG4NET-507
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-507
Project: Log4net
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Appenders
Affects Versions: 1.2.15
Reporter: Gavan Smith
Priority: Minor
I wanted to utilize a custom lossyEvaluator to send all buffered events using
the smtpappender when the discarded event indicated all events in the buffer
were recent.
A minor change to the documentation would resolve confusion without breaking
those who rely on only sending the discarded event. No good for my use case,
I'll find another way.
If the current behavior is corrected, perhaps change the
BufferingAppenderSkelton.cs (approx line 194 .. 198) LossyEvaluator
documentation to:
/// <para>
/// The evaluator will be called for each event that is
discarded from this
/// appender. If the evaluator triggers then the discarded
event will immediately
/// be sent (see <see cref="M:SendBuffer(new LoggingEvent[] {
discardedLoggingEvent })"/>).
/// </para>
