Hi there,

I want to get all files where log file exist.
I used below code but it shows log file path. I want to get directory path of log file.

C#

var rootAppender = ((Hierarchy)LogManager.GetRepository())
                                         .Root.Appenders.OfType<FileAppender>()
                                         .FirstOrDefault();

            string filename = rootAppender != null ? rootAppender.File : string.Empty;

What I have tried:

I also tried below:

C#

string curdir = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(Application.ExecutablePath);

string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(curdir);


foreach (string names in files)
{
     checkedListBox1.Items.Add(names);
}

I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve, but to get a list of file names in the current directory you can do this.

C#

var currentDirectoryInfo = new DirectoryInfo(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory());
           FileInfo[] fileInfos= currentDirectoryInfo.GetFiles();

            foreach (FileInfo fileInfo in fileInfos)
            {
                checkedListBox1.Items.Add(fileInfo.Name);
            }

Sounds like you're looking for the Path.GetDirectoryName method[^]:

C#

var rootAppender = ((Hierarchy)LogManager.GetRepository())
                                         .Root.Appenders.OfType<FileAppender>()
                                         .FirstOrDefault();

string directoryName = rootAppender != null 
    ? Path.GetDirectoryName(rootAppender.File) 
    : string.Empty;
