[Bug 605034] [NEW] Log4net not working with NUnit

 

Public bug reported:

Problem: Using log4net with newer versions of nunit means that no
log file is created.

Demonstration follows.

I created the solution in VS 2008.
The OS is Windows XP.
I tested using both the nunit GUI and console.
I compared Nunit 2.2.5 with 2.5.5 (I suspect 2.5.0 will fail as well.)
The solution is created as a console app.

When the app is run as a console application a Log file is produced.
When the app is run using 2.2.5 a Log file is produced.
When the app is run using 2.5.5 no Log file is produced.

There are two files in the solution: Log.config and Program.cs

Following comes from a file name "Log.config"

----------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<log4net debug="false">       

  <appender name="DefaultLogFile" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
      <file value=".\Log" />
      <appendToFile value="false" />
      <staticLogFileName value="false" />           
      <rollingStyle value="Date" />
      <datePattern value="'.'yyyyMMdd'.log'" />
      <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
      
        <conversionPattern value="%utcdate{ABSOLUTE} %-5level %message%newline" />
        
      </layout>
  </appender>

  <root>
    <level value="All" />
    <appender-ref ref="DefaultLogFile" />
  </root>
</log4net>
-----------------------------------------------------

Following is Program.cs

-----------------------------------------------------
using System;
using System.Reflection;
using NUnit.Framework;

[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfiguratorAttribute(ConfigFile =
"Log.config", Watch = true)]

namespace TestNunitLog4net
{
[TestFixture]
public class Program
{
  private static readonly log4net.ILog log 
        = log4net.LogManager.GetLogger(
            MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);
            
  // Test scenarios
  //   Test 1: Works - log show up (gui and console)
  //        log4net: 1.2.10.0
  //        Nunit: 2.2.5.0

  //   Test 2: Fails - no log file (gui and console)
  //        log4net: 1.2.10.0
  //        Nunit: 2.5.5.10112
  
  // Following has no impact.
  // It exists just so we can see it in log.
  private readonly String exeType;
  
  static void Main()
  {
    Program p = new Program("Exe");
    p.TestLog();
  }
  
  private Program(String stype)
  {
    this.exeType = stype;
  }
  
  public Program()
  {
    this.exeType = "Nunit";
  }


  [Test]
  public void TestLog()
  {
    log.Debug(exeType + ": First line");
    log.Debug(exeType + ": Second line");
  }

} // End of class
} // End of namespace
