SharePoint For Developers

What is the Problem The big problem in SharePoint 2010/2013 to write the custom error to log files, whenever the error comes, the developer grab the associate correlation GUID and see the associated error in 14 hive folder. The log file also contains the bunch of other information as well. It would be great if somehow I can develop the custom logging feature for our project that is only specific to my project. It will reduced my effort and it would be a big win for me as a developer. Solution we would able to solve this problem by using 3rd party open source DLL “log4net” . We have written some custom classes to override the base function that would help us to write SharePoint logs into the 14 hive. These classes contain the logic for generating the logs under the same location, where the SharePoint logs are generated i.e 14 hives under different folder (This will help to get the exact information during the error and trace). Solution Dependency Log4Net Dll Important C...
