in this time I try to log into a DB whit L4N, this is the struct of the table:
[TcpClientTracer]
[ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[Date] [datetime] NOT NULL,
[Thread] [varchar](20) NOT NULL,
[EventType] [varchar](20) NOT NULL,
[ClientId] [int] NOT NULL,
[ModemId] [varchar](128) NOT NULL,
[EventText] [varchar](2000) NOT NULL
to fill this table I use this appender:
<appender name="TcpAdoNetAppender" type="log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppender,log4net">
<bufferSize value="50" />
<connectionType value="System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" />
<connectionString value="Data Source=[IPADDRES]; Initial Catalog=XYXY; User Id=username;Password=password" />
<commandText value="INSERT INTO TcpClientTracer ([Date],[Thread],[EventType],[ClientId],[ModemId],[EventText]) VALUES (@log_date, @thread, @eventtype, @clientid, @modemid, @eventtext)" />
<parameter>
<parameterName value="@log_date" />
<dbType value="DateTime" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.RawTimeStampLayout" />
</parameter>
<parameter>
<parameterName value="@thread" />
<dbType value="String" />
<size value="20" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%thread" />
</layout>
</parameter>
<parameter>
<parameterName value="@eventtype" />
<dbType value="String" />
<size value="20" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.RawPropertyLayout">
<key value="eventtype" />
</layout>
</parameter>
<parameter>
<parameterName value="@clientid"/>
<dbType value="Int32"/>
<layout type="log4net.Layout.RawPropertyLayout">
<key value="clientid" />
</layout>
</parameter>
<parameter>
<parameterName value="@modemid" />
<dbType value="String" />
<size value="128" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.RawPropertyLayout">
<key value="modemid" />
</layout>
</parameter>
<parameter>
<parameterName value="@eventtext" />
<dbType value="String" />
<size value="2000" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.RawPropertyLayout">
<key value="eventtext" />
</layout>
</parameter>
</appender>
the logger is this:
<logger name="TcpClientTracer" additivity="false">
<level value="ALL"/>
<appender-ref ref="TcpAdoNetAppender" />
</logger>
and...to pass the data from C# I use this method:
public static void writeLog(GroupType mGrupo, Hashtable mValues)
{
ILog Logger = oLogger.GetLoggerByGroup(mGrupo);
Type declaringType = typeof(log4net.LogManager);
LoggingEvent loggingEvent = new LoggingEvent(declaringType, Logger.Logger.Repository, Logger.Logger.Name, Level.All, null, null);//null = Message, Exception
foreach (DictionaryEntry CurrentEntry in mValues)
{
loggingEvent.Properties[CurrentEntry.Key.ToString()] = CurrentEntry.Value;
}
Logger.Logger.Log(loggingEvent);
}
I don't know how works the LoggingEvent, but I use it to fill other table and work perfectly. If somebody can help me with this issue, I apreciate!!
Thanks to read my bad english!!
I am not 100% sure what you are asking. What I can tell you for sure is this: If you want to log custom properties, you need to use RawPropertyLayout and specify property name. Example:
<parameter>
<parameterName value="@clientid"/>
<dbType value="Int32"/>
<layout type="log4net.Layout.RawPropertyLayout">
<key value="clientid" />
</layout>
</parameter>
