Classes
CustomRecordLoggingOptions
Represents the options for custom log records. These options are exposed by the CustomRecordLoggingOptions property.
DefaultLoggingExceptionHandler
Implementation of ILoggingExceptionHandler that attempts to log exceptions to the Meta logging role, then disables the backlog in case of an internal exception, but not in case of invalid user code. Not to be confused with ILoggerExceptionHandler.
FormattedMessageBuilder
Creates messages based on a human-readable formatted string. These messages are suitable for structured logging but are not optimal for machine analysis.
For more succinct code, consider including the using static PostSharp.Patterns.Diagnostics.FormattedMessageBuilder statement.
LogActivity
Represents a logged custom activity, that is, something that has a beginning and an end with a specific outcome. This class is instantiated by the legacy API of the Logger class. For the modern API, see LogActivity<TActivityDescription>.
LogAttribute
Custom attribute that, when applied on a method, causes PostSharp to implement tracing before and after the execution of this method.
LogAttributeBase
Base class for all method-level logging aspects.
LogExceptionAttribute
Custom attribute that, when applied on a method, causes PostSharp to implement tracing when an exception occurs in this method.
LogRecordKindExtensions
Provides extension methods for the LogRecordKind enum.
LogSource
Allows writing log messages and tracing the execution of activities. This class is optimized for use with C# 7.2 or later. For previous compiler versions, consider using the legacy PostSharp.Patterns.Diagnostics.LogSource.Logger class.
LogValueAttribute
Custom attribute that, when applied on a field or property, causes PostSharp to implement tracing when its value changes.
Logger
Allows emitting custom log records and defining custom activities. This class is obsolete. Use LogSource for new development.
LoggerFactoryExtensions
Provides extension methods for the ILoggerFactory interface.
LoggingAbstractSource
Exposes the current LoggingTypeSource for a given role and Type.
LoggingBackend
Base class for all logging backends (sometimes called sinks, targets, or listeners) of the PostSharp logging system.
LoggingBackendOptions
Represents the options of the LoggingBackend class.
LoggingBuildTimeConfiguration
Root element of the XML configuration (postsharp.config) for the Logging component.
LoggingConfigurationManager
Provides methods that configure a LoggingBackend from an XML file.
LoggingContextLocalConfiguration
Stores the context-sensitive configuration, that is, the configuration that is specific to the current execution context.
LoggingContextMismatchException
Exception thrown when an operation assumes a different current LoggingContext.
LoggingException
Exception thrown by ThrowingLoggingExceptionHandler when the logging subsystem throws an exception. The InnerException property contains the original Exception.
LoggingExceptionInfo
Arguments of the OnInternalException(LoggingExceptionInfo) method.
LoggingNamespaceSource
Allows enabling or disabling logging for a whole namespace.
LoggingOptions
Represents the build-time options for logging records. This class is exposed by DefaultOptions and ExceptionOptions. The values of this class cannot be changed at run time because they influence the way PostSharp instruments the code.
LoggingOptions.Serializer
LoggingProfile
Logging profiles are named configurations of logging aspects and influence the way PostSharp generates the
code instrumentation. They are typically instantiated in postsharp.config.
LoggingProfile.Serializer
LoggingProfileCollection
Collection of instances of the LoggingProfile class.
LoggingProfileRepository
Provides access to logging profiles (LoggingProfile) at run time. This class is exposed by the Profiles property. Note that each assembly of the AppDomain contains its own copy of each LoggingProfile used in this assembly, and each copy may be different, even if they have the same name.
LoggingProperty
Represents a property. A property has a name, a value and a few options.
LoggingRoleConfiguration
Role-specific logging options. There is one instance of the LoggingRoleConfiguration class for each logging role. The LoggingRoleConfiguration is a run-time concept, with no build-time meaning.
LoggingRoleConfigurationRepository
Provides access to role-specific options (LoggingRoleConfiguration). This class is exposed by the Profiles property.
LoggingRoles
Defines the standard logging roles.
LoggingServices
The entry point to configure PostSharp.Patterns.Diagnostics logging at run time.
LoggingServices.Formatters
Provides access to the formatters used by logging. All members of this class are static.
LoggingTypeSource
Allows enabling or disabling logging for a specific type, and exposes some information about the verbosity for this type. Note that a type here does not need to map to a .NET type. It can be an arbitrary dot-separated string.
LoggingVerbosityConfiguration
Manages the configuration of the minimum LogLevel for individual types and namespaces. This class is exposed by the Verbosity property. To create a new instance of this class, call CreateVerbosityConfiguration().
NotLoggedAttribute
Indicates that the value of this parameter should not be logged.
SemanticMessageBuilder
Creates semantic messages composed of a message name and a list of properties given as name-value pairs. These messages are ideal for machine analysis.
For more succinct code, consider including the using static PostSharp.Patterns.Diagnostics.SemanticMessageBuilder statement.
ThrowingLoggingExceptionHandler
Implementation of ILoggingExceptionHandler that throws a LoggingException or an InvalidOperationException.
Structs
CloseActivityOptions
Represents the options of the closing methods of the LogActivity<TActivityDescription> type.
LogActivityOptions
Represents the options of a new LogActivity.
LogActivity<TActivityDescription>
Represents a logged custom activity, i.e. something that has a beginning and an end with a specific outcome. This class is instantiated by the new API of the LogSource class.
LoggingContextLocalConfigurationScope
Represents a scope started with the WithContextLocalConfiguration(LoggingContextLocalConfiguration) method.
Dispose the scope to close it. It is recommended to use the using keyword.
LoggingSourceLocalState
Stores the state of a LoggingAbstractSource for the current execution context.
OpenActivityOptions
Represents the argument of the OpenActivity<T>(in T, in OpenActivityOptions) method.
WriteMessageOptions
Represents the options of the Write<T>(in T, in WriteMessageOptions) method.
Interfaces
ILogActivity
Exposes the public API of the generic value type LogActivity<TActivityDescription>.
ILogAspect
Interface that all method-level logging aspects implement.
ILogValueAspect
Interface that all location-level logging aspects implement.
ILoggingExceptionHandler
Defines the methods that are called when an exception occurs in the logging component.
Enums
ContextIdGenerationStrategy
Specifies the strategies used to generate the value of the Id property.
LogActivityKind
Specifies the kind of a LogActivity.
LogLevel
Specifies the severity of a logged message.
LogRecordKind
Specifies the kinds of log records.
