Exception Logging

[MS Techie]

Hi,

Can anyone give me good pointers on exception logging mechanism for web
services. I am planning to write my own Exception Helper classes to log
arguments and exceptions.

Thanks,

You can use something as simply as an event log entry. or you can use
a third party package like log4net. It all depends of your need

1. System.Diagnostics.Trace.
2. log4net
3. Enterprise Library - Logging Block

Plenty more options, but those seem to be the most common. I'd start
with Trace as that's a stock .NET class, and if it does everything
that you want then it's less hassle overall. If it's too simplistic,
consider the other options.

Hi Pavel,

Instead of using the Enterprise Library - Logging Block, there is a new
feature in ASP.Net 2.0 which talks about Health Monitoring wherein we can log
and audit events. Take a look at the link below and PLEASE LET ME KNOW YOUR
COMMENTS AND THOUGHTS on the same.
