Thanks Morten,


I have found one,TextWriterTraceListener.

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.diagnostics.textwritertracelistener.aspx

After reading through this page, I am still a little confused about how to
use it step by step. Do you have a tutorial?


regards,
George

Thanks Morten,


You mean Microsoft .Net itself does not provide log function? I only need to
log to a local file.

Hello everyone,


I am using C# and Visual Studio 2005 to develop a class library. I am
wondering whether there are any built-in log component in C# so that I can
utilize directly other than write from scratch?

I am also wondering if there does exist such log component, if multiple
processes using the built-in log component to open the same log file to write
log (in my application, I want all processes which loads the class library
DLL to have a common log file), will there be any risk of racing condition
(e.g. interlacing log of one process and another process)? Do we need any
lock/synchronization approach?


thanks in advance,
George


Hi George,

In addition to Marc's suggestion there is also log4net

http://logging.apache.org/log4net/index.html

I haven't tried logging to file, but it seems robust enough that numerous logging sources should not be a problem.

Not really. The closes thing is the Trace and Debug classes. But you need to write some code to make them good logging classes.
