(Sorry for might be a trivial question , I’m coming from Java & Maven , and still haven’t wrapped my mind around C# dependencies )

I want to use log4net in all my projects. Since I don’t want to add the dll to all the projects , I’ve created a “Globals” project , add a reference to log4net.dll in it , and referenced from all the other projects to the “Globals” project .

However , I can’t seem to access the log4net classes from any other project . 

using Globals.log4net;

Doesn’t seems to work either .

What am I doing wrong?

    If all you did was reference the DLL, then all you have done was get a copy of the DLL with every reference to your Globals project. You are still not using the library.

    What I would normally do would create an ILogger interface, implement it using log4net in the Globals project and use that implementation in the other projects (plus a mock implementation for tests).
