Dave,
The following works for me (mind the line breaks!)
public static void DisableAppender(string name)
{
foreach(log4net.Appender.AppenderSkeleton appender in
GetAllAppenders())
{
if (appender.Name == name)
{
appender.Threshold = log4net.Core.Level.Off;
}
}
}
public static void DumpAppenders()
{
foreach(log4net.Appender.AppenderSkeleton appender in
GetAllAppenders())
{
string info = "Appender: Type=["+appender.GetType().Name+"]
Name=["+appender.Name+"] Threshold=[";
if (appender.Threshold == null)
{
info += "No Threshold Set";
}
else
{
info += appender.Threshold.Name;
}
info += "]";
Console.WriteLine(info);
}
}
public static log4net.Appender.IAppender[] GetAllAppenders()
{
ArrayList appenders = new ArrayList();
log4net.Repository.Hierarchy.Hierarchy h =
(log4net.Repository.Hierarchy.Hierarchy)log4net.LogManager.GetLoggerRepo
sitory();
appenders.AddRange(h.Root.Appenders);
foreach(log4net.Repository.Hierarchy.Logger logger in
h.GetCurrentLoggers())
{
appenders.AddRange(logger.Appenders);
}
return
(log4net.Appender.IAppender[])appenders.ToArray(typeof(log4net.Appender.
IAppender));
}
To disable the ConsoleAppender just call
DisableAppender("ConsoleAppender") after the log4net has been
configured.
