I have this in an app.config file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuratio n>
<system.diagnos tics>
<trace autoflush="true " indentsize="2">
<listeners>
<add name="myListene r" traceOutputOpti ons="Timestamp"
type="System.Di agnostics.TextW riterTraceListe ner"
initializeData= "C:\TestConsole \MyListener.log "/>
</listeners>
</trace>
</system.diagnost ics>
</configuration>
The code I'm using to write is this:
Debug.WriteLine ("Hello config file.");
I just want to output variable values but also would like a time stamp
appended with every .Write or .WriteLine. First, what is the above
timestamp option doing (this came from intellisense) and how do I get
the behavior I'm looking for?
Thanks,

Having had a little experiment, it looks like this is only used when
you call Trace.TraceErro r, Trace.TraceInfo rmation or Trace.TraceWarn ing
- not the Write* methods.

I see: I'm using:
Trace.Flush();
Trace.TraceInfo rmation("");
and see this entry in the log file:
TestConsole.vsh ost.exe Information: 0 :
Timestamp=16209 13894489365
How exactly can the readable date/time be written into the log?
Also, flush() doesn't seem to be doing anything. I still have all of
the previous log entries there. How can I clean out the log file on
each debug session or is this something I have to do completely
manually (streamwriter)?
Thanks,
Brett

Have you tried DateTime as an option instead of Timestamp?

Flush doesn't do what you think it does - it makes sure that any cached
data is flushed to disk.

I tried datetime but that didn't do anything. Nothing is outputting in
that regard:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuratio n>
<system.diagnos tics>
<trace autoflush="true " indentsize="2">
<listeners>
<add name="myListene r" traceOutputOpti ons="DateTime"
type="System.Di agnostics.TextW riterTraceListe ner"
initializeData= "C:\Test\bin\De bug\MyListener. log"/>
</listeners>
</trace>
</system.diagnost ics>
</configuration>
Any other suggestions on the timestamp?
I'd also like to output only certain code. It seems to be outputting
all errors. In other words, how do I configure a Trace in the
app.config file then reference it in code the same way I do Debug? For
example, the trace may be named myTrace and I can do
myTrace.WriteLi ne(). The log file will contain only entries that I
explicitly reference via myTrace.
Thanks,
Brett

Could you post a short but complete program which demonstrates the
problem?
See http://www.pobox.com/~skeet/csharp/complete.html for details of
what I mean by that.
Here's some sample code which uses the same configuration as yours:
using System;
using System.Diagnost ics;
class Test
{
static void Main()
{
Trace.TraceInfo rmation("Hello" );
Trace.Flush();
}
}
Here's the result:
test Information: 0 : Hello
DateTime=2006-04-10T18:23:25.343 7500Z
(Of course, you need to compile with TRACE defined.)

You can use Trace.Listeners["myTrace"] to get a specific TraceListener,
but I don't think you would normally do that. (TraceListener doesn't
seem to encourage you to use it directly.)
Perhaps you should look at other logging frameworks, such as Log4Net?

Hi there,
My ASP.NET 2.0 app uses an external assembly that calls methods like
Trace.Write() and Trace.TraceError() of namespace System.Diagnostics.
I need to enable tracing in my web app so that I could see the trace
messages from the component.
Here's what I've added to web.config so far:

We have an ASP.NET 2.0 (C#) app and we want to enable tracing (see the code
snippets below).
The first time a user navigates to the app., the tracing works fine (the
ASP.NET tracing appears on the screen and writes to a text file). The
problem happens any subsequent time the app. is used--tracing doesn't
happen. It's as if tracing just turns itself off. So, we only get tracing
on the first time the app runs but never any other time.
