I would like to use log4j.net in my windows forms project. However I have never used any library or dll in .NET. How to do it? I look at the site, but I can’t find it.
I’m using visual studio 2010.

In your project, you need add a reference to the library, usually by selecting the DLL from the references dialog.
A package manager, NuGet, has been created as an add on to Visual Studio 2010, which lets you select libraries – it will download and set them up for you.
Whichever way you do this, you will now be able to use the library – in a code file, use the
usingdirective to import the namespace, then you can use the classes and other public members of the library in your code (though you could use the fully qualified name every time, if you wish to).This has nothing to do with a library being open source or not, by the way.
