Assembly: log4net (in log4net.dll) Version: 1.2.15.0 (1.2.15.0)
If the maximum number of size based backups is reached (curSizeRollBackups == maxSizeRollBackups) then the oldest file is deleted -- its index determined by the sign of countDirection. If countDirection < 0, then files {File.1, ..., File.curSizeRollBackups -1} are renamed to {File.2, ..., File.curSizeRollBackups}. Moreover, File is renamed File.1 and closed.
A new file is created to receive further log output.
If maxSizeRollBackups is equal to zero, then the File is truncated with no backup files created.
If maxSizeRollBackups < 0, then File is renamed if needed and no files are deleted.
