The FileAppender. MinimalLock type exposes the following members.

	Name	Description
	FileAppender.MinimalLock	Initializes a new instance of the FileAppender. MinimalLock class

	Name	Description
	CurrentAppender	Gets or sets the FileAppender for this LockingModel (Inherited from FileAppender.LockingModelBase.)

	Name	Description
	AcquireLock	Acquire the lock on the file (Overrides FileAppender.LockingModelBase.AcquireLock().)
	ActivateOptions	Initializes all resources used by this locking model. (Overrides FileAppender.LockingModelBase.ActivateOptions().)
	CloseFile	Close the file (Overrides FileAppender.LockingModelBase.CloseFile().)
	CloseStream	Helper method to close stream under CurrentAppender's SecurityContext. (Inherited from FileAppender.LockingModelBase.)
	CreateStream	Helper method that creates a FileStream under CurrentAppender's SecurityContext. (Inherited from FileAppender.LockingModelBase.)
	Equals	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	OnClose	Disposes all resources that were initialized by this locking model. (Overrides FileAppender.LockingModelBase.OnClose().)
	OpenFile	Prepares to open the file when the first message is logged. (Overrides FileAppender.LockingModelBase.OpenFile(String, Boolean, Encoding).)
	ReleaseLock	Release the lock on the file (Overrides FileAppender.LockingModelBase.ReleaseLock().)
	ToString	Returns a String that represents the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)

Opens the file once for each AcquireLock()/ReleaseLock() cycle, thus holding the lock for the minimal amount of time. This method of locking is considerably slower than FileAppender. ExclusiveLock but allows other processes to move/delete the log file whilst logging continues.
