What does custom property %property{jobType} or job[%property{jobType}] do to a Log4Net Filename?
Log4Net allows you to customize your output files with various parameters. For example: <pre> <conversionPattern value="%property{logLocation}\Logs\MyProgram.log.%date{yyyyMMdd-HHmm} processid[%processid] job[%property{jobType}].txt" /> </pre> It will show something like “job[LoadJob]” or “job[Whatever] based on your custom property called “jobType”. This is a custom property which is set as follows. <pre> GlobalContext.Properties["jobType"] = currentProcessorType; // or some literal value </pre>
