I'm having trouble making a PropertyFilter work with some custom properties
of mine, and the archives didn't turn up anything. I'm probably not
understanding what PropertyFiltering is or am fat-fingering something; help
appreciated.
Expected Behavior: a certain FileAppender named 'AssertionException' will
only contain Events with a custom property 'LogEventCategory' set to a value
of 'AssertionHandling'.
Actual Behavior: no filtering takes place; all events logged to this
appender's output file.
The appender definition is:
<appender name="AssertionException" type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender">
<filter type="log4net.Filter.PropertyFilter">
<Key value="LogEventCategory" />
<StringToMatch value="AssertionHandling" />
</filter>
<file value="..\..\AssertionException.txt" />
<appendToFile value="false" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="[%date] [%thread] [%-5level]
[%property{LogEventContext}] [%property{LogEventCategory}] [%logger] [%ndc]
[%property{LogEventType}] [%property{LogEventId}]
[%property{LogEventUserId}] [%message]%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
Internal debugging output shows nothing untoward that I can see; I found the
following:
log4net: XmlHierarchyConfigurator: Loading Appender [AssertionException]
type: [log4net.Appender.FileAppender]
log4net: XmlHierarchyConfigurator: Setting Property [Key] to String value
[LogEventCategory]
log4net: XmlHierarchyConfigurator: Setting Property [StringToMatch] to
String value [AssertionHandling]
log4net: XmlHierarchyConfigurator: Setting Collection Property [AddFilter]
to object [log4net.Filter.PropertyFilter]
Here's subset of log output showing property 'LogEventCategory' values of
'ExecutionTrace' (not desired) and 'AssertionHandling':

So what am I not getting, here?
