> I would like to see an API that flushes any appenders that have buffered 
> data. E.g. a method LogManager.Flush().  An application might call such a 
> method at regular intervals, e.g. on a Timer.
> A naive implementation with the current log4net would iterate through 
> appenders, looking for those that support flushing, and call the appender's 
> flush method, e.g.:
>     foreach (IAppender appender in 
>              LogManager.GetRepository().GetAppenders())
>     {
>         BufferingAppenderSkeleton bas = appender 
>                         as BufferingAppenderSkeleton;  
>         if (bas != null) bas.Flush();
>     }
> But (a) I'm not sure this is thread-safe and (b) there are potentially other 
> appenders that may want to be able to flush data (e.g. a TextWriterAppender 
> with ImmediateFlush = false).
> The request consists of:
> - Add an interface, IFlushableAppender or equivalent, with a single method 
> Flush().
> - Implement this interface in all relevant appenders 
> (BufferingAppenderSkeleton, TextWriterAppender, ...)
> - Add a thread-safe static Flush() method to LogManager.
