Syntax

C#
public static class PhoenixLog

Remarks

This static class maintains one-and-only-one instance of a class that implements the ILog interface. An instance is first created by calling the Create(String, LogArchiveType, Int64) method. Once created, the AddEntry(String, array<Object>[]()[]) and AddError(Exception) methods can be used to write to the log. The following pseudo-code shows how a logger is typically used.
CopyC#
PhoenixLog.Create("c:\mylogfile.xml", LogArchiveType.Daily, 0);
.
.
.
PhoenixLog.AddEntry("Hello world!");

Examples

This example shows how the logger is used in real life.
CopyC#
protected void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Code that runs when the application starts
PhoenixLog.Create(PhoenixConfiguration.GetLogFilePath(), PhoenixConfiguration.LogArchiveMethod, PhoenixConfiguration.LogArchiveValue);
SomeMethod();
}
private void SomeMethod()
{
try
{
int n = 42;
int d = 0;
int result = n / d;
}
catch (DivideByZeroException ex)
{
PhoenixLog.AddError("You divided by zero bonehead", ex);
}
}
