Changing FileName programmatically

[phlasher]

Hi,
is it possible to configure NLog per NLog.config and then change the filename of a FileTarget programmatically on application launch?
I'm creating a c#-component and I want to let the user specify the LogPath...

I have to set minLevel AND maxLevel, and as far as I can tell, SimpleConfigurator doesn't provide methods to do that...

thanks in advance

You could always just alter the config file programattically, not?
This is maybe not as ellegant, but it does the job.

I did it this way

            config = new LoggingConfiguration();

            FileTarget fileTarget = new FileTarget();
            config.AddTarget("file", fileTarget);

            fileTarget.Layout = "${longdate}|${level}|${callsite}|${message}";
            fileTarget.FileName = String.Format("${{basedir}}/{0}.log", filename);

            LoggingRule rule = new LoggingRule("*", LogLevel.Debug, fileTarget);
            config.LoggingRules.Add(rule);

            LogManager.Configuration = config;

where filename is passed into the method as a parameter


Hope this is what you're looking for
