Microsoft Enterprise Logging Application Block - Reading Log File
- by Or A
Hi,
I'm using MS log application block for logging my application event into a file called app-trace.log which located on the c:\temp folder.
I'm trying to find the best way to read this file at runtime and display it when the user asks for it. now i have 2 issues:
it seems that this kind of feature is not supported by the framework, hence i have to write this reader myself. am i missing something here? is there any better way of getting this data (w/o buffering it in the memory or saving it into another file).
if i'm taking the only alternative that left for me, and implementing the reader myself, when i'm tring to do:
System.IO.FileStream fs = new System.IO.FileStream(@"c:\temp\app-trace.log", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
i'm getting "File being used by another process c#", probably the file is locked by the application block. is there any way to access and read it anyhow?
Thank
