I wrote WCF server.
I want to be able to see all the calls from the client ( for debug ) in run-time – so i thought that the best solution will be to add some ability to flush the information to console.
( i want to add some ‘black’ console like the console that appear when creating console appliaction – and not in the output of the visual sdudio )
How can i add now this console ?
How can i control the console ( write to console , show / hide to console ) ?
Thanks for any help.
I would recommend using log4net (http://logging.apache.org/log4net/). It’s a great and stable logging tool which allows you to configure your logging settings through xml. You can just add a console Appender to your application, restart and it does console logging for you. If you want text, take text.
By the way, if you use tools like baretail (http://www.baremetalsoft.com/baretail/) working with log files is really nice and you won’t need to run your service in console mode to debug/monitor it.
