I’m developping a log4net wrapper and I must inherit a custom class from log4net.Core.LogImpl

  • 0

I’m developping a log4net wrapper and I must inherit a custom class from log4net.Core.LogImpl to provide a TRACE level.

With a reference to log4net, I would have :

using log4net.Core;

public class TraceLogImpl : LogImpl, ITraceLog
{
...
}

The problem is that I must have no direct reference to log4net.dll in my projet : the library is in the bin directory (that way, I do not depend on a specific version of log4net) and it is loaded at runtime.

-> I can’t use “using log4net.Core”.

My question is : how can I inherit from this type by using reflection?

Thank you for your help!

    You can’t, basically.

    It sounds like you should possibly extract this into a separate project which does depend on log4net, and effectively treat it as an extra part of log4net itself (versioned alongside it etc).
