Syntax

public bool PreserveLogFileNameExtension { get; set; }

Public Property PreserveLogFileNameExtension As Boolean
	Get
	Set

public:
property bool PreserveLogFileNameExtension {
	bool get ();
	void set (bool value);
}

member PreserveLogFileNameExtension : bool with get, set

Property Value

Type: Boolean
true if the file name extension should be preserved.

Remarks

By default file.log is rolled to file.log.yyyy-MM-dd or file.log.curSizeRollBackup. However, under Windows the new file name will loose any program associations as the extension is changed. Optionally file.log can be renamed to file.yyyy-MM-dd.log or file.curSizeRollBackup.log to maintain any program associations.
