  How to set the category and EventId in log4net

  Oct 24, 2011 08:54 PM|LINK

  I am using log4net to log the errors in my application .Eveything works fine for the initial setup and logging. Now i want to set the Category and Event in the Eventlog.

  I am using the below code to log the EventID  ,but not sure about the category.

        log4net.ThreadContext.Properties["EventID"] = 5;

  Also how to differenciate the error levels [like i am getting the error message from Global.asax and logging the message to Eventlogs.But all the errors are going to log.error as below

            if ((log.IsErrorEnabled) && ((checkException.GetHttpCode() == 500) || (checkException.GetHttpCode() == 404)))
             {
          
                 
                  if(checkException.GetHttpCode() == 500)              
                  log4net.ThreadContext.Properties["Category"] = "500";
                  else
                  log4net.ThreadContext.Properties["Category"] = "404";

                  log.Error("Error" + sbErrorMessage.ToString() );

             }  
              else if (log.IsInfoEnabled)
              {
                  log.Warn("Information" + sbErrorMessage.ToString());
              }
                   
             else if (log.IsWarnEnabled)
             {
                 log.Info("Warning" + sbErrorMessage.ToString());
             }

  I am not quite clear here..Like if i get an "InvalidOperationException" its an warning but the httpcode is 500 and it gets logged as "Error". I tried to get sbErrorMessage.innerExeception but its null.

  Thanks in advance
  I want all the errors,warning and information to be logged in one EventLog
