Hi!

I want to place logfiles in the Documents and Settings/User/Local
Settings/ApplicationData folder.
This folder might be called something else under a spanish Windows. So I
have to determine the
path during runtime (done with
System.Windows.Forms.Application.UserAppDataPath). However, since
I put logging in a .dll assembly (with no Main, thus no best place to call
XmlConfigurator),
I would like to use the XmlConfigurator attribute.

Is there some way to specify this directory for my logfiles? If possible, I
would like to do it
by using assembly attributes.

If this isn't possible, what solution is the recommended? I can think of one
that would work:
create a static constructor in the first class that gets instantiated. This
constructor would
create the XmlConfigurator.

Hälsningar,
Daniel
