I am trying to move a project to .net standard and it basically is a class library. I am using log4net for logging and I was using the method
public static ILog GetLogger(string name);
As this is a library referenced by multiple projects, defining repository should not happen as each project referencing this one, defines it's own repository for logging. How can I circumvent this issue when it comes to porting to .Net standard?
The implementation of GetLogger is simple:
public static ILog GetLogger(string name)
{
return GetLogger(Assembly.GetCallingAssembly(), name);
}
Assuming you want to use your class library's assembly, you can write your own helper method for that easily:
private static ILog GetLogger(string name) =>
LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(SomeTypeInYourLibrary).Assembly, name);
It's basically hard-coding the assembly to be "the assembly containing the type you've specified" which is what you'd always get from calling GetLogger(string) from your library anyway.
