| Category | Formats the category parameter sent to the Debug method.
| ErrorHandler | Gets or sets the IErrorHandler for this appender. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| FilterHead | The filter chain. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| ImmediateFlush | Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the appender will flush at the end of each write.
| Layout | Gets or sets the ILayout for this appender. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| Name | Gets or sets the name of this appender. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| RequiresLayout | This appender requires a log4net.Layout to be set. (Overrides AppenderSkeleton RequiresLayout.)
| Threshold | Gets or sets the threshold Level of this appender. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)

Methods

| Name | Description
--- | --- | ---
| ActivateOptions | Initialize the appender based on the options set (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| AddFilter | Adds a filter to the end of the filter chain. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| Append( LoggingEvent ) | Append a bulk array of logging events. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| Append(LoggingEvent) | Writes the logging event to the Debug system. (Overrides AppenderSkeleton Append(LoggingEvent).)
| ClearFilters | Clears the filter list for this appender. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| Close | Closes the appender and release resources. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| DoAppend(LoggingEvent) | Performs threshold checks and invokes filters before delegating actual logging to the subclasses specific [M:Append(LoggingEvent)] method. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| DoAppend( LoggingEvent ) | Performs threshold checks and invokes filters before delegating actual logging to the subclasses specific [M:Append(LoggingEvent[])] method. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| Equals | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
| FilterEvent | Test if the logging event should we output by this appender (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| Finalize | Finalizes this appender by calling the implementation's Close method. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| Flush | Flushes any buffered log data. (Overrides AppenderSkeleton Flush(Int32).)
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
| IsAsSevereAsThreshold | Checks if the message level is below this appender's threshold. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
| OnClose | Is called when the appender is closed. Derived classes should override this method if resources need to be released. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| PreAppendCheck | Called before [M:Append(LoggingEvent)] as a precondition. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| RenderLoggingEvent(LoggingEvent) | Renders the LoggingEvent to a string. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| RenderLoggingEvent(TextWriter, LoggingEvent) | Renders the LoggingEvent to a string. (Inherited from AppenderSkeleton.)
| ToString | Returns a String that represents the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

The application configuration file can be used to control what listeners are actually used. See the MSDN documentation for the Debug class for details on configuring the debug system.

Events are written using the Write(string, string) method. The event's logger name is passed as the value for the category name to the Write method.
