I did write something that we now use in all of our applications that used log4net to write to various outputs (file, database, console). Have just switched to NLog as it appears to be the fastest and most reliable.

I prefer NLog to be honest, but I have to use log4net currently, as that is what the project I am working on has been using.

Each function has it's own header - changes, updated, bug-fixes, &etc are all noted in the header along with the date. On the occasion that it's a substantial change, details are included.
Also - the new/modified code is noted with the date of change and noted with a why.

What does this have to do with logging errors?
Aren't you using source control to manager changes, bugs, etc.? (Git, SVN, something?)
|
|

Logging - essentially keeping a record with some chronology.
So - when there's an error I note it in the location where it was found.
On that basis, I guess I'll send a few ???'s to you w.r.t you question.
If the interpretation is supposed to be logon-attempt errors then it should have been made explicitly clear that it was limited to that scope. Or perhaps I should think like a lumberjack?

The question is how do you log errors. In other words, when your code generates an error do you log that error to a file, to a database, etc?

And I told you what I did.
Why does it have to be to a separate file or database to count, to you, as an answer?
In-situ is a place where it's relevance is not lost. Relevant history, if any, is contiguous.

That's not the sort of error logging the survey's asking about.
It's asking when your application encounters an error (eg File Not Found); how is that error recorded/reported/etc at rutime to you so that it can be fixed.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

That's how you read it. File not found doesn't have to be an addressable error at all, but rather, user error. So - that view - as I see it, is altogether wrong.
The Apache error log records every nuance - an no rational human being would really want to go through that for things like file not found.
On the other hand, undefined index, a real error, is also there. That can be fixed. How many copies of that message ought you keep? More than one is ludicrous.
You, and some others, saw a narrow scope in what an error is and what logging it means.
For me, an error log of my code is something I can find useful - not just a huge list of what will surely be redundant complaints by the system.

Not if troubleshooting the cause requires several examples in order to see a pattern, assuming you're logging more detail about the error than just the error number/message/location, or need to see if it only occurred once or several times but only at certain times of the day, etc.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

OK - you check the errors, discern the pattern, fix the problem.
Of what use, now are the individual errors? Instead, an explanation of what was done and why is far more useful - especially if in the vicinity of where the fix was made.

Now that the problem is fixed? Of no use at all. At this point I delete the email or event log and move on. If I'm keeping a journal of errors and fixes, which is what you seem to be calling a log, then I'll also note the problem and fix, and sure, one journal/log entry per problem is sufficient for journaling.

You are talking about code changes. The survey is talking about errors that happen when your code is running. You seem to be missing something in translation.

If you never run the code it never has errors.
The survey asks how one logs errors. So - when an error occurs, it's either a code error, needs to be fixed and logged/documented/tattooed on your foreskin. If, on the other hand, it's a general error (like a user error), logging it will help nothing.
Either it gets prevented (code fix or kill user), or ignored because you cannot outwit stupid.

It seems I, and a couple of others, do not understand what you are saying in reference to the survey. But I trust it makes sense in your head.
