Namespace: log4net.Config
Assembly: log4net (in log4net.dll) Version: 2.0.8.0-.NET 4.0
Syntax

[ObsoleteAttribute("Use XmlConfigurator.ConfigureAndWatch instead of DOMConfigurator.ConfigureAndWatch")]
public static void ConfigureAndWatch(
	FileInfo configFile
)

Parameters

configFile
Type: System.IOFileInfo
The XML file to load the configuration from.
Remarks

DOMConfigurator is obsolete. Use XmlConfigurator instead of DOMConfigurator.

The configuration file must be valid XML. It must contain at least one element called log4net that holds the configuration data.

The configuration file will be monitored using a FileSystemWatcher and depends on the behavior of that class.

For more information on how to configure log4net using a separate configuration file, see [M:Configure(FileInfo)].
