I have this code:

C#

Using Libs;

public static readonly log4net.ILog log =
 log4net.LogManager.GetLogger(System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);

 static void Main(string[] args)

{
Libs.Connect("www.gmail.com");
}

Now Libs NameSpace contains:

C#

namespace Libs
{
    class Libs
    {
        public void Connect(string Uri)
        {
            log.Info("Connecting to Server : " + Uri);
        }
    }
}

Within Libs .. "log" is not recognised. What do i need to change to fix this? If i use log.Info in Main it just works fine

What I have tried:

i tried to change public void etc.

This works:

IQ.Program.log.Info("Connecting to Server : " + Uri);

It is already needed? or is it possible to make it shorter so that "log.Info" works?

You would need to move the declaration for log into the Libs class.

You can put your Log instance in Program, making it globally available throughout the app.

This is somewhat lazy but I think justified for a logger which is truly a single resource and hardly worth the effort of packaging in a more fancy way (a singleton being good alternative).
