Question

Say I have a class that looks like this.

public static class Config
{
    public static string GetAppSetting(string key)
    {
        return ConfigurationManager.AppSettings[key].ToString();
    }
}

And I wanted to log every call to this method along with the key parameter & return value.

The only code change I want to make is this:

[Log]
public static class Config
{
    public static string GetAppSetting(string key)
    {
        return ConfigurationManager.AppSettings[key].ToString();
    }
}

I’ll most likely use log4net to log the calls from the Log attribute. How can this be achieved?

Thanks in advance!

You can use a tool like PostSharp to create a logging aspect.
