The FileAppenderMinimalLock type exposes the following members.

	Name	Description
	FileAppenderMinimalLock	Initializes a new instance of the FileAppenderMinimalLock class

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

	Name	Description
	AcquireLock	Acquire the lock on the file (Overrides FileAppenderLockingModelBaseAcquireLock.)
	ActivateOptions	Initializes all resources used by this locking model. (Overrides FileAppenderLockingModelBaseActivateOptions.)
	CloseFile	Close the file (Overrides FileAppenderLockingModelBaseCloseFile.)
	CloseStream	Helper method to close stream under CurrentAppender's SecurityContext. (Inherited from FileAppenderLockingModelBase.)
	CreateStream	Helper method that creates a FileStream under CurrentAppender's SecurityContext. (Inherited from FileAppenderLockingModelBase.)
	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 FileAppenderLockingModelBaseOnClose.)
	OpenFile	Prepares to open the file when the first message is logged. (Overrides FileAppenderLockingModelBaseOpenFile(String, Boolean, Encoding).)
	ReleaseLock	Release the lock on the file (Overrides FileAppenderLockingModelBaseReleaseLock.)
	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 FileAppenderExclusiveLock but allows other processes to move/delete the log file whilst logging continues.
