---------------------------------------------
Summary: DebugAppender configuration should give the possibility
to disable outputting loggerName as category
Key: LOG4NET-553
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-553
Project: Log4net
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Appenders
Affects Versions: 2.0.7
Reporter: Jean-Francois Beaulac
Attachments: OutputCategoryParam-DebugAppender.cs.patch
The DebugAppender always uses the
{{System.Diagnostics.Debug.Write(string,string)}} overload passing in the
loggername as the category parameter.
It should be possible to omit the category parameter if having the loggername
as category is not desired.
Attached is a patch implementing the desired new feature, which would be
activated by configuration:
{code:xml}
<appender name="DEBUG" type="log4net.Appender.DebugAppender">
<outputCategory value="false"/>
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%-5level: %message%newline"/>
</layout>
</appender>
{code}
In my patch, the outputCategory parameter defaults to true, so the behavior
doesnt change unless the new configuration is used.
