            <remarks>
            <para>
            <see cref="T:log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppender"/> appends logging events to a table within a
            database. The appender can be configured to specify the connection 
            string by setting the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppender.ConnectionString"/> property. 
            The connection type (provider) can be specified by setting the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppender.ConnectionType"/>
            property. For more information on database connection strings for
            your specific database see <a href="http://www.connectionstrings.com/">http://www.connectionstrings.com/</a>.
            </para>
            <para>
            Records are written into the database either using a prepared
            statement or a stored procedure. The <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppender.CommandType"/> property
            is set to <see cref="F:System.Data.CommandType.Text"/> (<c>System.Data.CommandType.Text</c>) to specify a prepared statement
            or to <see cref="F:System.Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure"/> (<c>System.Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure</c>) to specify a stored
            procedure.
            </para>
            <para>
            The prepared statement text or the name of the stored procedure
            must be set in the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppender.CommandText"/> property.
            </para>
            <para>
            The prepared statement or stored procedure can take a number
            of parameters. Parameters are added using the <see cref="M:log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppender.AddParameter(log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppenderParameter)"/>
            method. This adds a single <see cref="T:log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppenderParameter"/> to the
            ordered list of parameters. The <see cref="T:log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppenderParameter"/>
            type may be subclassed if required to provide database specific
            functionality. The <see cref="T:log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppenderParameter"/> specifies
            the parameter name, database type, size, and how the value should
            be generated using a <see cref="T:log4net.Layout.ILayout"/>.

            <remarks>
            <para>
            AnsiColorTerminalAppender appends log events to the standard output stream
            or the error output stream using a layout specified by the 
            user. It also allows the color of a specific level of message to be set.
            </para>
            <note>
            This appender expects the terminal to understand the VT100 control set 
            in order to interpret the color codes. If the terminal or console does not
            understand the control codes the behavior is not defined.
            </note>
            <para>
            By default, all output is written to the console's standard output stream.
            The <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.AnsiColorTerminalAppender.Target"/> property can be set to direct the output to the
            error stream.
            </para>

            NOTE: This appender writes each message to the <c>System.Console.Out</c> or 
            <c>System.Console.Error</c> that is set at the time the event is appended.
            Therefore it is possible to programmatically redirect the output of this appender 
            (for example NUnit does this to capture program output). While this is the desired
            behavior of this appender it may have security implications in your application. 
            </para>
            <para>
            When configuring the ANSI colored terminal appender, a mapping should be
            specified to map a logging level to a color. For example:

            <code lang="XML" escaped="true">
            <mapping>
              <level value="ERROR" />

              <backColor value="Green" />
            </mapping>
            </code>
            <para>
            The Level is the standard log4net logging level and ForeColor and BackColor can be any
            of the following values:
            <list type="bullet">
            <item><term>Blue</term><description></description></item>
            <item><term>Green</term><description></description></item>

            <item><term>White</term><description></description></item>
            <item><term>Yellow</term><description></description></item>
            <item><term>Purple</term><description></description></item>
            <item><term>Cyan</term><description></description></item>
            </list>
            These color values cannot be combined together to make new colors.
            </para>
            <para>
            The attributes can be any combination of the following:
            <list type="bullet">
            <item><term>Bright</term><description>foreground is brighter</description></item>
            <item><term>Dim</term><description>foreground is dimmer</description></item>
            <item><term>Underscore</term><description>message is underlined</description></item>
            <item><term>Blink</term><description>foreground is blinking (does not work on all terminals)</description></item>
            <item><term>Reverse</term><description>foreground and background are reversed</description></item>
            <item><term>Hidden</term><description>output is hidden</description></item>
            <item><term>Strikethrough</term><description>message has a line through it</description></item>
            </list>
            While any of these attributes may be combined together not all combinations
            work well together, for example setting both <i>Bright</i> and <i>Dim</i> attributes makes
            no sense.

            Abstract base class implementation of <see cref="T:log4net.Appender.IAppender"/> that 
            buffers events in a fixed size buffer.
            </summary>
            <remarks>
            <para>
            This base class should be used by appenders that need to buffer a 
            number of events before logging them.
            For example the <see cref="T:log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppender"/> 
            buffers events and then submits the entire contents of the buffer to 
            the underlying database in one go.
            </para>
            <para>
            Subclasses should override the <see cref="M:SendBuffer(LoggingEvent[])"/>
            method to deliver the buffered events.
            </para>
            <para>The BufferingAppenderSkeleton maintains a fixed size cyclic 
            buffer of events. The size of the buffer is set using 
            the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.BufferingAppenderSkeleton.BufferSize"/> property.
            </para>
            <para>A <see cref="T:log4net.Core.ITriggeringEventEvaluator"/> is used to inspect 
            each event as it arrives in the appender. If the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.BufferingAppenderSkeleton.Evaluator"/> 
            triggers, then the current buffer is sent immediately 
            (see <see cref="M:SendBuffer(LoggingEvent[])"/>). Otherwise the event 
            is stored in the buffer. For example, an evaluator can be used to 
            deliver the events immediately when an ERROR event arrives.
            </para>
            <para>
            The buffering appender can be configured in a <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.BufferingAppenderSkeleton.Lossy"/> mode. 
            By default the appender is NOT lossy. When the buffer is full all 
            the buffered events are sent with <see cref="M:SendBuffer(LoggingEvent[])"/>.
            If the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.BufferingAppenderSkeleton.Lossy"/> property is set to <c>true</c> then the 
            buffer will not be sent when it is full, and new events arriving 
            in the appender will overwrite the oldest event in the buffer. 
            In lossy mode the buffer will only be sent when the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.BufferingAppenderSkeleton.Evaluator"/>
            triggers. This can be useful behavior when you need to know about 
            ERROR events but not about events with a lower level, configure an 
            evaluator that will trigger when an ERROR event arrives, the whole 
            buffer will be sent which gives a history of events leading up to
            the ERROR event.

            The <c>System.Console.Out</c> and <c>System.Console.Error</c> streams can be
            programmatically redirected (for example NUnit does this to capture program output).
            This appender will ignore these redirections because it needs to use Win32

            <para>
            When configuring the colored console appender, mapping should be

            <c>System.Console.Error</c> that is set at the time the event is appended.
            Therefore it is possible to programmatically redirect the output of this appender 
            (for example NUnit does this to capture program output). While this is the desired
            behavior of this appender it may have security implications in your application.

            Avoiding the flush operation at the end of each append results 
            in a performance gain of 10 to 20 percent. However, there is safety
            trade-off involved in skipping flushing. Indeed, when flushing is
            skipped, then it is likely that the last few log events will not
            be recorded on disk when the application exits. This is a high
            price to pay even for a 20% performance gain.

            The 32766 documented max size is two bytes shy of 32K (I'm assuming 32766 
            may leave space for a two byte null terminator of #0#0). The 32766 max 
            length is what the .NET 4.0 source code checks for, but this is WRONG! 
            Strings with a length > 31839 on Windows Vista or higher can CORRUPT 
            the event log! See: System.Diagnostics.EventLogInternal.InternalWriteEvent() 
            for the use of the 32766 max size.

            The maximum size supported by a windows operating system that is vista
            or newer.
            </summary>
            <remarks>
            See ReportEvent API:
               http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa363679(VS.85).aspx
            ReportEvent's lpStrings parameter:
            "A pointer to a buffer containing an array of 
            null-terminated strings that are merged into the message before Event Viewer 
            displays the string to the user. This parameter must be a valid pointer 
            (or NULL), even if wNumStrings is zero. Each string is limited to 31,839 characters."
            
            Going beyond the size of 31839 will (at some point) corrupt the event log on Windows
            Vista or higher! It may succeed for a while...but you will eventually run into the
            error: "System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception : A device attached to the system is
            not functioning", and the event log will then be corrupt (I was able to corrupt 
            an event log using a length of 31877 on Windows 7).
            
            The max size for Windows Vista or higher is documented here:
               http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xzwc042w(v=vs.100).aspx.
            Going over this size may succeed a few times but the buffer will overrun and 
            eventually corrupt the log (based on testing).
            
            The maxEventMsgSize size is based on the max buffer size of the lpStrings parameter of the ReportEvent API.
            The documented max size for EventLog.WriteEntry for Windows Vista and higher is 31839, but I'm leaving room for a
            terminator of #0#0, as we cannot see the source of ReportEvent (though we could use an API monitor to examine the
            buffer, given enough time).

            The file can be opened in either append or overwrite mode 
            by specifying the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.FileAppender.AppendToFile"/> property.
            If the file path is relative it is taken as relative from

            respectively. If the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.FileAppender.AppendToFile"/> property is <see langword="true"/>

            This appender will first try to open the file for writing when <see cref="M:log4net.Appender.FileAppender.ActivateOptions"/>
            is called. This will typically be during configuration.
            If the file cannot be opened for writing the appender will attempt
            to open the file again each time a message is logged to the appender.
            If the file cannot be opened for writing when a message is logged then
            the message will be discarded by this appender.

            the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.FileAppender.LockingModel"/> property.
            The default behavior, implemented by <see cref="T:log4net.Appender.FileAppender.ExclusiveLock"/> 
            is to obtain an exclusive write lock on the file until this appender is closed.
            The alternative models only hold a
            write lock while the appender is writing a logging event (<see cref="T:log4net.Appender.FileAppender.MinimalLock"/>)
            or synchronize by using a named system wide Mutex (<see cref="T:log4net.Appender.FileAppender.InterProcessLock"/>).

            All locking strategies have issues and you should seriously consider using a different strategy that

            <note>
            This appender uses the POSIX libc library functions <c>openlog</c>, <c>syslog</c>, and <c>closelog</c>.
            If these functions are not available on the local system then this appender will not work!
            </note>
            <para>
            The functions <c>openlog</c>, <c>syslog</c>, and <c>closelog</c> are specified in SUSv2 and 
            POSIX 1003.1-2001 standards. These are used to log messages to the local syslog service.

            This appender talks to a local syslog service. If you need to log to a remote syslog
            daemon and you cannot configure your local syslog service to do this you may be
            able to use the <see cref="T:log4net.Appender.RemoteSyslogAppender"/> to log via UDP.

            <para>
            Syslog messages must have a facility and and a severity. The severity
            is derived from the Level of the logging event.
            The facility must be chosen from the set of defined syslog 
            <see cref="T:log4net.Appender.LocalSyslogAppender.SyslogFacility"/> values. The facilities list is predefined
            and cannot be extended.
            </para>
            <para>
            An identifier is specified with each log message. This can be specified
            by setting the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.LocalSyslogAppender.Identity"/> property. The identity (also know 
            as the tag) must not contain white space. The default value for the
            identity is the application name (from <see cref="P:log4net.Util.SystemInfo.ApplicationFriendlyName"/>).

            The libc syslog method takes a format string and a variable argument list similar

            by C# we need to specify the arguments explicitly. Here we have specified the
            format string with a single message argument. The caller must set the format

            <remarks>
            <para>
            The BSD syslog protocol is used to remotely log to
            a syslog daemon. The syslogd listens for for messages
            on UDP port 514.
            </para>
            <para>
            The syslog UDP protocol is not authenticated. Most syslog daemons
            do not accept remote log messages because of the security implications.
            You may be able to use the LocalSyslogAppender to talk to a local
            syslog service.
            </para>
            <para>
            There is an RFC 3164 that claims to document the BSD Syslog Protocol.
            This RFC can be seen here: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3164.html.
            This appender generates what the RFC calls an "Original Device Message",
            i.e. does not include the TIMESTAMP or HOSTNAME fields. By observation
            this format of message will be accepted by all current syslog daemon
            implementations. The daemon will attach the current time and the source
            hostname or IP address to any messages received.
            </para>
            <para>
            Syslog messages must have a facility and and a severity. The severity
            is derived from the Level of the logging event.
            The facility must be chosen from the set of defined syslog 
            <see cref="T:log4net.Appender.RemoteSyslogAppender.SyslogFacility"/> values. The facilities list is predefined
            and cannot be extended.
            </para>
            <para>
            An identifier is specified with each log message. This can be specified
            by setting the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.RemoteSyslogAppender.Identity"/> property. The identity (also know 
            as the tag) must not contain white space. The default value for the
            identity is the application name (from <see cref="P:log4net.Core.LoggingEvent.Domain"/>).

            Delivers logging events to a remote logging sink. 
            </summary>
            <remarks>
            <para>
            This Appender is designed to deliver events to a remote sink. 
            That is any object that implements the <see cref="T:log4net.Appender.RemotingAppender.IRemoteLoggingSink"/>
            interface. It delivers the events using .NET remoting. The
            object to deliver events to is specified by setting the
            appenders <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.RemotingAppender.Sink"/> property.</para>
            <para>
            The RemotingAppender buffers events before sending them. This allows it to 
            make more efficient use of the remoting infrastructure.</para>
            <para>
            Once the buffer is full the events are still not sent immediately. 
            They are scheduled to be sent using a pool thread. The effect is that 
            the send occurs asynchronously. This is very important for a 
            number of non obvious reasons. The remoting infrastructure will 
            flow thread local variables (stored in the <see cref="T:System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.CallContext"/>),
            if they are marked as <see cref="T:System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.ILogicalThreadAffinative"/>, across the 
            remoting boundary. If the server is not contactable then
            the remoting infrastructure will clear the <see cref="T:System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.ILogicalThreadAffinative"/>
            objects from the <see cref="T:System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.CallContext"/>. To prevent a logging failure from
            having side effects on the calling application the remoting call must be made
            from a separate thread to the one used by the application. A <see cref="T:System.Threading.ThreadPool"/>
            thread is used for this. If no <see cref="T:System.Threading.ThreadPool"/> thread is available then
            the events will block in the thread pool manager until a thread is available.</para>
            <para>
            Because the events are sent asynchronously using pool threads it is possible to close 
            this appender before all the queued events have been sent.
            When closing the appender attempts to wait until all the queued events have been sent, but 
            this will timeout after 30 seconds regardless.</para>
            <para>
            If this appender is being closed because the <see cref="E:System.AppDomain.ProcessExit"/>
            event has fired it may not be possible to send all the queued events. During process
            exit the runtime limits the time that a <see cref="E:System.AppDomain.ProcessExit"/>
            event handler is allowed to run for. If the runtime terminates the threads before
            the queued events have been sent then they will be lost. To ensure that all events
            are sent the appender must be closed before the application exits. See 
            <see cref="M:log4net.Core.LoggerManager.Shutdown"/> for details on how to shutdown
            log4net programmatically.</para>

            <remarks>
            The events are not sent immediately. They are scheduled to be sent
            using a pool thread. The effect is that the send occurs asynchronously.
            This is very important for a number of non obvious reasons. The remoting
            infrastructure will flow thread local variables (stored in the <see cref="T:System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.CallContext"/>),
            if they are marked as <see cref="T:System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.ILogicalThreadAffinative"/>, across the 
            remoting boundary. If the server is not contactable then
            the remoting infrastructure will clear the <see cref="T:System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.ILogicalThreadAffinative"/>
            objects from the <see cref="T:System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.CallContext"/>. To prevent a logging failure from
            having side effects on the calling application the remoting call must be made
            from a separate thread to the one used by the application. A <see cref="T:System.Threading.ThreadPool"/>
            thread is used for this. If no <see cref="T:System.Threading.ThreadPool"/> thread is available then
            the events will block in the thread pool manager until a thread is available.

            </summary>
            <remarks>
            <para>
            RollingFileAppender can roll log files based on size or date or both
            depending on the setting of the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender.RollingStyle"/> property.
            When set to <see cref="F:log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender.RollingMode.Size"/> the log file will be rolled
            once its size exceeds the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender.MaximumFileSize"/>.
            When set to <see cref="F:log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender.RollingMode.Date"/> the log file will be rolled
            once the date boundary specified in the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender.DatePattern"/> property
            is crossed.
            When set to <see cref="F:log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender.RollingMode.Composite"/> the log file will be
            rolled once the date boundary specified in the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender.DatePattern"/> property
            is crossed, but within a date boundary the file will also be rolled
            once its size exceeds the <see cref="P:log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender.MaximumFileSize"/>.
            When set to <see cref="F:log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender.RollingMode.Once"/> the log file will be rolled when
            the appender is configured. This effectively means that the log file can be
            rolled once per program execution.

            If Date/Time based rolling is enabled this appender will attempt to roll existing files
            in the directory without a Date/Time tag based on the last write date of the base log file.
            The appender only rolls the log file when a message is logged. If Date/Time based rolling 
            is enabled then the appender will not roll the log file at the Date/Time boundary but
            at the point when the next message is logged after the boundary has been crossed.

            The appender will first try to open the file for writing when <see cref="M:log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender.ActivateOptions"/>
            is called. This will typically be during configuration.
            If the file cannot be opened for writing the appender will attempt
            to open the file again each time a message is logged to the appender.
            If the file cannot be opened for writing when a message is logged then
            the message will be discarded by this appender.

            Avoiding the flush operation at the end of each append results in
            a performance gain of 10 to 20 percent. However, there is safety
            trade-off involved in skipping flushing. Indeed, when flushing is
            skipped, then it is likely that the last few log events will not
            be recorded on disk when the application exits. This is a high
            price to pay even for a 20% performance gain.

            The address range 239.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 is reserved for administrative scope-relative 
            addresses.  These addresses can be reused with other local groups.  Routers are typically 
            configured with filters to prevent multicast traffic in this range from flowing outside
            of the local network.

            Assemblies are mapped to logging domains. Each domain has its own
            logging repository. This attribute specified on the assembly controls
            the configuration of the domain. The <see cref="P:log4net.Config.RepositoryAttribute.Name"/> property specifies the name
            of the domain that this assembly is a part of. The <see cref="P:log4net.Config.RepositoryAttribute.RepositoryType"/>
            specifies the type of the repository objects to create for the domain. If 
            this attribute is not specified and a <see cref="P:log4net.Config.RepositoryAttribute.Name"/> is not specified
            then the assembly will be part of the default shared logging domain.

            Use this attribute to configure the <see cref="T:log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator"/>

            properties are set the configuration is loaded from the application's .config file.
            If set the <see cref="P:log4net.Config.XmlConfiguratorAttribute.ConfigFile"/> property takes priority over the
            <see cref="P:log4net.Config.XmlConfiguratorAttribute.ConfigFileExtension"/> property. The <see cref="P:log4net.Config.XmlConfiguratorAttribute.ConfigFile"/> property
            specifies a path to a file to load the config from. The path is relative to the
            application's base directory; <see cref="P:System.AppDomain.BaseDirectory"/>.
            The <see cref="P:log4net.Config.XmlConfiguratorAttribute.ConfigFileExtension"/> property is used as a postfix to the assembly file name.
            The config file must be located in the  application's base directory; <see cref="P:System.AppDomain.BaseDirectory"/>.
            For example in a console application setting the <see cref="P:log4net.Config.XmlConfiguratorAttribute.ConfigFileExtension"/> to
            <c>config</c> has the same effect as not specifying the <see cref="P:log4net.Config.XmlConfiguratorAttribute.ConfigFile"/> or

            <note>
            <para>
            Log4net will only look for assembly level configuration attributes once.
            When using the log4net assembly level attributes to control the configuration 
            of log4net you must ensure that the first call to any of the 
            <see cref="T:log4net.Core.LoggerManager"/> methods is made from the assembly with the configuration
            attributes. 
            </para>
            <para>
            If you cannot guarantee the order in which log4net calls will be made from 
            different assemblies you must use programmatic configuration instead, i.e.
            call the <see cref="M:XmlConfigurator.Configure()"/> method directly.

            <remarks>
            <para>
            This class uses the <c>System.Diagnostics.StackTrace</c> class to generate
            a call stack. The caller's information is then extracted from this stack.
            </para>
            <para>
            The <c>System.Diagnostics.StackTrace</c> class is not supported on the 
            .NET Compact Framework 1.0 therefore caller location information is not
            available on that framework.
            </para>
            <para>
            The <c>System.Diagnostics.StackTrace</c> class has this to say about Release builds:
            </para>
            <para>
            "StackTrace information will be most informative with Debug build configurations. 
            By default, Debug builds include debug symbols, while Release builds do not. The 
            debug symbols contain most of the file, method name, line number, and column 
            information used in constructing StackFrame and StackTrace objects. StackTrace 
            might not report as many method calls as expected, due to code transformations 
            that occur during optimization."
            </para>
            <para>
            This means that in a Release build the caller information may be incomplete or may 
            not exist at all! Therefore caller location information cannot be relied upon in a Release build.

            This manager also holds the <see cref="T:log4net.Core.IRepositorySelector"/> that is used to
            lookup and create repositories. The selector can be set either programmatically using
            the <see cref="P:log4net.Core.LoggerManager.RepositorySelector"/> property, or by setting the <c>log4net.RepositorySelector</c>
            AppSetting in the applications config file to the fully qualified type name of the

            <para>
            On the full .NET runtime, the static constructor hooks up the 
            <c>AppDomain.ProcessExit</c> and <c>AppDomain.DomainUnload</c>> events. 
            These are used to shutdown the log4net system as the application exits.

            <para>
            This needs to be in a separate method because the events make
            a LinkDemand for the ControlAppDomain SecurityPermission. Because
            this is a LinkDemand it is demanded at JIT time. Therefore we cannot
            catch the exception in the method itself, we have to catch it in the
            caller.

            Unlike the <see cref="P:log4net.Core.LoggingEvent.RenderedMessage"/> property this method
            does store the message data in the internal cache. Therefore 
            if called only once this method should be faster than the
            <see cref="P:log4net.Core.LoggingEvent.RenderedMessage"/> property, however if the message is
            to be accessed multiple times then the property will be more efficient.

            To improve performance, we could cache the string representation of 
            the name, and reuse that as long as the identity stayed constant.  
            Once the identity changed, we would need to re-assign and re-render 
            the string.

            However, the <c>WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent()</c> call seems to 
            return different objects every time, so the current implementation 
            doesn't do this type of caching.

            Once the properties have been fixed <see cref="P:log4net.Core.LoggingEvent.Fix"/> this property
            returns the combined cached properties. This ensures that updates to

                The <see cref="M:Fatal(object)"/> and <see cref="M:FatalFormat(string, object[])"/> methods log messages
                at the <c>FATAL</c> level. That is the level with that name defined in the
                repositories <see cref="P:log4net.Repository.ILoggerRepository.LevelMap"/>. The default value
                for this level is <see cref="F:log4net.Core.Level.Fatal"/>. The <see cref="P:log4net.Core.LogImpl.IsFatalEnabled"/>
                property tests if this level is enabled for logging.

            The values for these levels and their semantic meanings can be changed by

            This method first checks if this logger is <c>FATAL</c>
            enabled by comparing the level of this logger with the 
            <c>FATAL</c> level. If this logger is
            <c>FATAL</c> enabled, then it converts the message object
            (passed as parameter) to a string by invoking the appropriate
            <see cref="T:log4net.ObjectRenderer.IObjectRenderer"/>. It then 
            proceeds to call all the registered appenders in this logger and 
            also higher in the hierarchy depending on the value of the 
            additivity flag.

            <para>
            For some <c>log</c> Logger object, when you write:
            </para>
            <code lang="C#">
            log.Debug("This is entry number: " + i );
            </code>
            <para>
            You incur the cost constructing the message, concatenation in
            this case, regardless of whether the message is logged or not.
            </para>
            <para>
            If you are worried about speed, then you should write:
            </para>
            <code lang="C#">
            if (log.IsDebugEnabled())
            { 
              log.Debug("This is entry number: " + i );
            }
            </code>
            <para>
            This way you will not incur the cost of parameter
            construction if debugging is disabled for <c>log</c>. On
            the other hand, if the <c>log</c> is debug enabled, you
            will incur the cost of evaluating whether the logger is debug
            enabled twice. Once in <c>IsDebugEnabled</c> and once in
            the <c>Debug</c>.  This is an insignificant overhead
            since evaluating a logger takes about 1% of the time it
            takes to actually log.

            This interface can be implemented in different ways. This documentation
            specifies reasonable behavior that a caller can expect from the actual
            implementation, however different implementations reserve the right to
            do things differently.

            <remarks>
            <para>
            This function is intended to lessen the computational cost of
            disabled log debug statements.
            </para>
            <para> For some ILog interface <c>log</c>, when you write:</para>
            <code lang="C#">
            log.Debug("This is entry number: " + i );
            </code>
            <para>
            You incur the cost constructing the message, string construction and concatenation in
            this case, regardless of whether the message is logged or not.
            </para>
            <para>
            If you are worried about speed (who isn't), then you should write:
            </para>
            <code lang="C#">
            if (log.IsDebugEnabled)
            { 
                log.Debug("This is entry number: " + i );
            }
            </code>
            <para>
            This way you will not incur the cost of parameter
            construction if debugging is disabled for <c>log</c>. On
            the other hand, if the <c>log</c> is debug enabled, you
            will incur the cost of evaluating whether the logger is debug
            enabled twice. Once in <see cref="P:log4net.ILog.IsDebugEnabled"/> and once in
            the <see cref="M:Debug(object)"/>.  This is an insignificant overhead
            since evaluating a logger takes about 1% of the time it
            takes to actually log. This is the preferred style of logging.
            </para>
            <para>Alternatively if your logger is available statically then the is debug
            enabled state can be stored in a static variable like this:
            </para>
            <code lang="C#">
            private static readonly bool isDebugEnabled = log.IsDebugEnabled;
            </code>
            <para>
            Then when you come to log you can write:
            </para>
            <code lang="C#">
            if (isDebugEnabled)
            { 
                log.Debug("This is entry number: " + i );
            }
            </code>
            <para>
            This way the debug enabled state is only queried once
            when the class is loaded. Using a <c>private static readonly</c>
            variable is the most efficient because it is a run time constant
            and can be heavily optimized by the JIT compiler.
            </para>
            <para>
            Of course if you use a static readonly variable to
            hold the enabled state of the logger then you cannot
            change the enabled state at runtime to vary the logging
            that is produced. You have to decide if you need absolute
            speed or runtime flexibility.

            <remarks>
            <para>This class is built on <see cref="T:log4net.Layout.PatternLayout"></see> and provides all the
            features and capabilities of PatternLayout.  PatternLayout is a 'static' class
            in that its layout is done once at configuration time.  This class will recreate
            the layout on each reference.</para>
            <para>One important difference between PatternLayout and DynamicPatternLayout is the
            treatment of the Header and Footer parameters in the configuration.  The Header and Footer
            parameters for DynamicPatternLayout must be syntactically in the form of a PatternString,
            but should not be marked as type log4net.Util.PatternString.  Doing so causes the
            pattern to be statically converted at configuration time and causes DynamicPatternLayout
            to perform the same as PatternLayout.</para>

            Each conversion specifier starts with a percent sign (%) and is
            followed by optional <i>format modifiers</i> and a <i>conversion
            pattern name</i>. The conversion pattern name specifies the type of
            data, e.g. logger, level, date, thread name. The format
            modifiers control such things as field width, padding, left and
            right justification. The following is a simple example.
            </para>
            <para>
            Let the conversion pattern be <b>"%-5level [%thread]: %message%newline"</b> and assume
            that the log4net environment was set to use a PatternLayout. Then the
            statements

            <code lang="C#">
            ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(TestApp));
            log.Debug("Message 1");

            <para>
            Note that there is no explicit separator between text and
            conversion specifiers. The pattern parser knows when it has reached
            the end of a conversion specifier when it reads a conversion
            character. In the example above the conversion specifier
            <b>%-5level</b> means the level of the logging event should be left
            justified to a width of five characters.

                  <para>
                  Used to output the date of the logging event in the local time zone. 
                  To output the date in universal time use the <c>%utcdate</c> pattern.
                  The date conversion 
                  specifier may be followed by a <i>date format specifier</i> enclosed 
                  between braces. For example, <b>%date{HH:mm:ss,fff}</b> or
                  <b>%date{dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss,fff}</b>.  If no date format specifier is 
                  given then ISO8601 format is
                  assumed (<see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.Iso8601DateFormatter"/>).
                  </para>
                  <para>
                  The date format specifier admits the same syntax as the
                  time pattern string of the <see cref="M:DateTime.ToString(string)"/>.
                  </para>
                  <para>
                  For better results it is recommended to use the log4net date
                  formatters. These can be specified using one of the strings
                  "ABSOLUTE", "DATE" and "ISO8601" for specifying 
                  <see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.AbsoluteTimeDateFormatter"/>, 
                  <see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.DateTimeDateFormatter"/> and respectively 
                  <see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.Iso8601DateFormatter"/>. For example, 
                  <b>%date{ISO8601}</b> or <b>%date{ABSOLUTE}</b>.
                  </para>
                  <para>
                  These dedicated date formatters perform significantly
                  better than <see cref="M:DateTime.ToString(string)"/>.

                  If an exception object is stored in the logging event
                  it will be rendered into the pattern output with a
                  trailing newline.
                  If there is no exception then nothing will be output
                  and no trailing newline will be appended.
                  It is typical to put a newline before the exception
                  and to have the exception as the last data in the pattern.

                  This conversion pattern offers the same performance as using 
                  non-portable line separator strings such as  "\n", or "\r\n". 
                  Thus, it is the preferred way of specifying a line separator.

                  Used to output the an event specific property. The key to 
                  lookup must be specified within braces and directly following the
                  pattern specifier, e.g. <b>%property{user}</b> would include the value
                  from the property that is keyed by the string 'user'. Each property value
                  that is to be included in the log must be specified separately.
                  Properties are added to events by loggers or appenders. By default 
                  the <c>log4net:HostName</c> property is set to the name of machine on 
                  which the event was originally logged.

            <para>
            By default the relevant information is output as is. However,
            with the aid of format modifiers it is possible to change the
            minimum field width, the maximum field width and justification.
            </para>
            <para>
            The optional format modifier is placed between the percent sign
            and the conversion pattern name.
            </para>
            <para>
            The first optional format modifier is the <i>left justification
            flag</i> which is just the minus (-) character. Then comes the
            optional <i>minimum field width</i> modifier. This is a decimal
            constant that represents the minimum number of characters to
            output. If the data item requires fewer characters, it is padded on
            either the left or the right until the minimum width is
            reached. The default is to pad on the left (right justify) but you
            can specify right padding with the left justification flag. The
            padding character is space. If the data item is larger than the
            minimum field width, the field is expanded to accommodate the
            data. The value is never truncated.
            </para>
            <para>
            This behavior can be changed using the <i>maximum field
            width</i> modifier which is designated by a period followed by a
            decimal constant. If the data item is longer than the maximum
            field, then the extra characters are removed from the
            <i>beginning</i> of the data item and not from the end. For
            example, it the maximum field width is eight and the data item is
            ten characters long, then the first two characters of the data item
            are dropped. This behavior deviates from the printf function in C
            where truncation is done from the end.

             The following patterns <c>%type %file %line %method %location %class %C %F %L %l %M</c> 
             all generate caller location information.
            Location information uses the <c>System.Diagnostics.StackTrace</c> class to generate
            a call stack. The caller's information is then extracted from this stack.

            <note type="caution">
            <para>
            The <c>System.Diagnostics.StackTrace</c> class is not supported on the 
            .NET Compact Framework 1.0 therefore caller location information is not
            available on that framework.

            "StackTrace information will be most informative with Debug build configurations. 
            By default, Debug builds include debug symbols, while Release builds do not. The

            information used in constructing StackFrame and StackTrace objects. StackTrace 
            might not report as many method calls as expected, due to code transformations

            This means that in a Release build the caller information may be incomplete or may

            <para>
            A Nested Diagnostic Context, or NDC in short, is an instrument
            to distinguish interleaved log output from different sources. Log
            output is typically interleaved when a server handles multiple
            clients near-simultaneously.
            </para>
            <para>
            Interleaved log output can still be meaningful if each log entry
            from different contexts had a distinctive stamp. This is where NDCs
            come into play.
            </para>
            <para>
            Note that NDCs are managed on a per thread basis. The NDC class
            is made up of static methods that operate on the context of the
            calling thread.

            <see cref="T:log4net.Repository.ILoggerRepository"/> interface.
            </para>
            <para>
            The structure of the logger hierarchy is maintained by the
            <see cref="M:GetLogger(string)"/> method. The hierarchy is such that children
            link to their parent but parents do not have any references to their
            children. Moreover, loggers can be instantiated in any order, in
            particular descendant before ancestor.
            </para>
            <para>
            In case a descendant is created before a particular ancestor,
            then it creates a provision node for the ancestor and adds itself
            to the provision node. Other descendants of the same ancestor add
            themselves to the previously created provision node.

            The Thread Context provides a diagnostic context for the current thread. 
            This is an instrument for distinguishing interleaved log

            <para>
            The function requires a message definition as input. The message definition can come from a 
            buffer passed into the function. It can come from a message table resource in an 
            already-loaded module. Or the caller can ask the function to search the system's message 
            table resource(s) for the message definition. The function finds the message definition 
            in a message table resource based on a message identifier and a language identifier. 
            The function copies the formatted message text to an output buffer, processing any embedded 
            insert sequences if requested.
            </para>
            <para>
            To prevent the usage of unsafe code, this stub does not support inserting values in the formatted message.

                  Used to output the current date and time in the local time zone. 
                  To output the date in universal time use the <c>%utcdate</c> pattern.
                  The date conversion 
                  specifier may be followed by a <i>date format specifier</i> enclosed 
                  between braces. For example, <b>%date{HH:mm:ss,fff}</b> or
                  <b>%date{dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss,fff}</b>.  If no date format specifier is 
                  given then ISO8601 format is
                  assumed (<see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.Iso8601DateFormatter"/>).

                  For better results it is recommended to use the log4net date
                  formatters. These can be specified using one of the strings
                  "ABSOLUTE", "DATE" and "ISO8601" for specifying 
                  <see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.AbsoluteTimeDateFormatter"/>, 
                  <see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.DateTimeDateFormatter"/> and respectively 
                  <see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.Iso8601DateFormatter"/>. For example, 
                  <b>%date{ISO8601}</b> or <b>%date{ABSOLUTE}</b>.
                  </para>
                  <para>
                  These dedicated date formatters perform significantly

                  <para>
                  Used to output a specific context property. The key to 
                  lookup must be specified within braces and directly following the
                  pattern specifier, e.g. <b>%property{user}</b> would include the value
                  from the property that is keyed by the string 'user'. Each property value
                  that is to be included in the log must be specified separately.
                  Properties are stored in logging contexts. By default 
                  the <c>log4net:HostName</c> property is set to the name of machine on 
                  which the event was originally logged.

                  <para>
                  If no key is specified, e.g. <b>%property</b> then all the keys and their

                        The length of the string can be specified within braces directly following the
                  pattern specifier, e.g. <b>%random{8}</b> would output an 8 character string.

                  <para>
                  Used to output the date of the logging event in universal time. 
                  The date conversion 
                  specifier may be followed by a <i>date format specifier</i> enclosed 
                  between braces. For example, <b>%utcdate{HH:mm:ss,fff}</b> or
                  <b>%utcdate{dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss,fff}</b>.  If no date format specifier is 
                  given then ISO8601 format is
                  assumed (<see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.Iso8601DateFormatter"/>).
                  </para>
                  <para>
                  The date format specifier admits the same syntax as the

                  <para>
                  For better results it is recommended to use the log4net date
                  formatters. These can be specified using one of the strings
                  "ABSOLUTE", "DATE" and "ISO8601" for specifying 
                  <see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.AbsoluteTimeDateFormatter"/>, 
                  <see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.DateTimeDateFormatter"/> and respectively 
                  <see cref="T:log4net.DateFormatter.Iso8601DateFormatter"/>. For example, 
                  <b>%utcdate{ISO8601}</b> or <b>%utcdate{ABSOLUTE}</b>.
                  </para>
                  <para>
                  These dedicated date formatters perform significantly
                  better than <see cref="M:DateTime.ToString(string)"/>.
