Shuts down the repository specified.
Namespace: log4net
Assembly: log4net (in log4net.dll) Version: 2.0.6.0-.NET 4.0
Syntax
Parameters
- repositoryAssembly
- Type: System.ReflectionAssembly
The assembly to use to lookup the repository.
Remarks
Calling this method will safely close and remove all appenders in all the loggers including root contained in the repository. The repository is looked up using the repositoryAssembly specified.
Some appenders need to be closed before the application exists. Otherwise, pending logging events might be lost.
The shutdown method is careful to close nested appenders before closing regular appenders. This is allows configurations where a regular appender is attached to a logger and again to a nested appender.
