My task is to hook up an El5 Logger to a legacy database, where the company’s exceptions are logged.
I followed the instructions in this post:
custom DB logging using enterprise library 4.1

Here is where I get stuck:

I copied the FormattedDatabaseTraceListener into my solution, changed the name to “MyDbTraceListener” and modified it to talk to my database. How do I get the EL5 framework to use my new Tracelistener? I can’t pick it in the EL5 config designer, as it doesn’t derive from CustomTraceListener.

Any help is appreciated.
