<b style="font-size: 150%; color: red">NLog 1.0 has been released.!</b>
<p>
After 2 years of work, we're proud to announce the availability of NLog 1.0. NLog is a logging library designed
with simplicity and flexibility in mind. See <a href="http://www.nlog-project.org">http://www.nlog-project.org</a> for more
information about NLog.
</p>
<p>
Source, binary packages and installer packages are available for
download from: <a href="http://www.nlog-project.org/download.html">http://www.nlog-project.org/download.html</a>
</p>
<p>
Tutorial and reference documentation are available at:
<a href="http://www.nlog-project.org/documentation.html">http://www.nlog-project.org/documentation.html</a>
</p>
<p>

<li>Maarten Claes <code>&lt;m.claes at farcourier dot com&gt;</code></li>
</ul>
<p>
The focus of this relase is future compatibility. Code has been added to ensure
that the development of NLog will progress without breaking existing code.
The following paragraphs describe changes that made after 1.0 RC1 release.
</p>
<p>
Breaking API changes:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Added NLog.ILayout which Layout implements to allow other layout types
(such as CSV-escaped, HTML-colored, XML-escaped, ANSI-colored) to be implemented.</li>
<li>NLog.Layout became sealed.</li>
<li>FileTarget.KeepFileOpen is back to the default
of false. we now have <x><default-target-parameters /></x> so this default can be easily overriden.</li>
<li>Added NLog.TargetWithLayout, removed Layout and CompiledLayout from NLog.Target</li>
<li>Removed CSVFile target, converted examples to File + CsvLayout</li>
<li>Removed LogEventInfo.Empty and replaced with LogEventInfo.CreateNullEvent()</li>
<li>Changed the default value of FileTarget.OpenFileCacheTimeout to -1</li>
</ul>
<p>
Packaging changes:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Added publisher policy generation and established NLog versioning policy. See <a href="http://blog.jkowalski.net/?p=55">http://blog.jkowalski.net/?p=55</a>
for more information about NLog versioning policy.</li>
<li>Build number is synchronized with SVN number.</li>
<li>Added VJSharp and Web item templates. Updated the installer to support VWD Express 2005.</li>
<li>Synchronized Visual Studio solutions to source code directories. Now part of the build process.</li>
<li>New NLog.Benchmark that uses code generation and compilation to create more "clean" environment.</li>
</ul>
<p>
Changes to the logging infrastructure:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Added <x><targets><default-target-parametes /> </targets></x> that specifies default values for all targets in the section</li>
<li>Added Initialize() and Close() to the LayoutRender class</li>
<li>Added optimized CurrentTimeGetter which is way faster than DateTime.Now</li>
<li>Fixed LayoutRenderer.ApplyPadding() null handling</li>
<li>Added infrastructure to create your own logger types inheriting from Logger:

<code lang="C#">
LogManager.GetLogger(string name, Type type)
LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger(Type type)
LogFactory.GetLogger(string name, Type type)
LogFactory.GetCurrentClassLogger(Type type)
</code>
</li>
<li>Added PopulateLayouts() method to ILayout</li>
<li>Added ${event-context} layout renderer that extracts information from LogEventInfo.Context</li>
<li>Added LogManager&lt;LoggerType&gt; that manages logger instances of LoggerType where LoggerType : Logger</li>
<li>Added support for nested layout renderers. Used in ${file-contents}:
<code lang="C#">
${file-contents:fileName=${basedir}/aaa.txt}
</code>
</li>
<li>Added support for DEFAULT nested layout parameters. You can now write:
<code lang="C#">
${file-contents:${basedir}/file.txt}
${rot13:URYYB}
</code>
</li>
<li>Added pluggable layouts (CSV, Log4JXml), LayoutFactory and LayoutAttribute. The syntax is:
<code lang="XML">
<![CDATA[
<target xsi:type="File">
<layout xsi:type="CSVLayout">
<column name="message" layout="${message}" />
<column name="level" layout="${level}" />
</layout>
</target>
]]>
</code>
<p>
Of course the old syntax is still supported for simple layouts:
</p>

<code lang="XML">
<![CDATA[
<target xsi:type="File" layout="${message}" />
]]>
</code>
</li>
<li>Added ILayoutWithHeaderAndFooter for layouts that support header/footer (such as CSV Layout, more to come)</li>
<li>Enhanced XSD Schema generation by properly generating abstract and layout properties.</li>
<li>Added FilterResult.IgnoreFinal and FilterResult.LogFinala which suppress processing of further rules
if the filter matches.</li>
<li>Added NLogConfigurationException which is thrown instead of CLR exceptions when the configuration fails</li>
<li>Simplified XmlLoggingConfiguration by splitting large methods and moving common functionality to PropertyHelper</li>
<li>Added [DefaultParameter] attribute which allows for nameless parameters to layout renderers:
<code lang="NLog Layout Renderer">
${aspnet-application}
${aspnet-request}
${aspnet-session}
${date}
${environment}
${file-contents}
${gdc}
${mdc}
${process-info}
${special-folder}
${asp-application}
${asp-request}
${asp-session}
</code>
</li>
<li>Moved the implementation of LogManager to a reusable LogFactory while maintaining its public interface.
You can now easily have a private LogManager for an assembly.</li>
</ul>
<p>
New additions:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Added MaxMessageSize (default: 65000) and OnOverflow (default:Split) to
the Network target</li>
<li>Implemented headers and footers for the File target.
<b>CAUTION</b> NLog automatically writes footers for files that have not been
written for 2 days (48 hours). This is done do conserve memory for
long-running processes that create lots of log files.</li>
<li>Enabled DatabaseTarget.ConnectionString to include layouts.</li>
<li>Added eventID and categoryID parameters to EventLog targets.</li>
<li>Added ${file-contents} layout renderer which inserts file contents.</li>
<li>Added MailTarget.AddNewLines to insert new lines between header/lines/footer</li>
<li>Added FormControl target that logs to Text property of any Windows.Forms.Control</li>
<li>Added RichTextBox target with row- and word coloring that logs to RichTextBox</li>
<li>Added ${tempdir} and ${specialfolder}</li>
<li>Added ${gc} which can be used to get the GC statistics (very limited)</li>
<li>Added ${processinfo} which can be used to extract the performance information about the current process (possibly others in the future as well)</li>
<li>Added ImpersonatingWrapper which temporarily changes the credentials for the duration of the write.</li>
<li>Added NLog_Init() and NLog_InitLocal() APIs to NLogC</li>
</ul>
<p>
Bug fixes:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Fixed File target for Windows 98</li>
<li>Fixed Network target to work properly with IPV6</li>
<li>Changed RichTextBox Target to be thread safe. Uses delegate to log to RichTextBox</li>
</ul>
<p>
Documentation updates:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Added examples of inheriting from Logger class and wrapping it</li>
<li>Added missing code documentation</li>
<li>Added example ${rot13} layout renderer - that demonstrates how wrapper layout renderers can be written.</li>
<li>Added proper camelCasing to the web build process</li>
<li>Fix for multiple email addresses being passed in To,CC and BCC fields under .NET 2.0 (reported by Pawel Parzychowski)</li>
</ul>
