Description

Welcome!

I would like to suggest an improvement of Log4Net utility for .Net Compact Framework. The .Net CF 1.0/2.0/3.5 does not provide developers with FileSystemWatcher class. However there is nothing against implementing a simple class invoking SHChangeNotifyRegister API in Log4Net. I have recently started developing mobile applications and I regret lack of automatic reconfiguration feature in Log4Net .Net CF. I am quite familiar with SHChangeNotifyRegister API and I could try to modify XmlConfigurator class to support configuration file monitoring. What do you think of this idea?

If there was an opportunity, I would like to contribute to Log4Net project.
