Hello,

We have an application that logs using log4net. But we would like to delete the logfiles every 4 weeks (automatically).
Is there an option in log4net to do this or do we need to have a work arround?

Cheers, M.

In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
