Thread Safety

This type is not safe for multithreaded operations.

Remarks

ConsoleAppender appends log events to the standard output stream or the error output stream using a layout specified by the user.

By default, all output is written to the console's standard output stream. The Target property can be set to direct the output to the error stream.

NOTE: This appender writes each message to the System.Console.Out or System.Console.Error that is set at the time the event is appended. Therefore it is possible to programmatically redirect the output of this appender (for example NUnit does this to capture program output). While this is the desired behavior of this appender it may have security implications in your application.

Requirements

Namespace: log4net.Appender

Assembly: log4net (in log4net.dll)
