A CRM solution that provides a lot of details when logging from plugins, web-services, and console apps. It provides a tree view of function calls as well.

• Log each whole execution in its own record
  • Log works in plugins, custom steps, console apps, and web services
• Defers log to the end of the execution for improved performance
• Create parent log container and defers creating entries to the async job for performance
• Option for logging function start and end (manually)
  • For automatic logging, use CrmLogger.Fody from NuGet
• Automatically parses the exception details on passing an Exception object to the log
• Logs to CRM, CSV file, or console
  • File logging can be used as a fallback
• Log files overflow to new files on date or size threshold

• Set the log level in the Generic Configuration entity, on the 'Logging' form
• Go to the Log entity view to view the logs

I will post a complete guide soon.

The following is a sample of how to log in a plugin.

public void Execute(IServiceProvider serviceProvider)
{
	var context = (IPluginExecutionContext)serviceProvider.GetService(typeof(IPluginExecutionContext));
	
	try
	{
		log.SetRegarding(context.PrimaryEntityName, context.PrimaryEntityId);
		log.LogExecutionStart();

		log.LogDebug("Starting plugin logic ...");

		log.Log("Some info.");
		Test(log);
		log.LogWarning("Some warning.");

		log.LogDebug("Finished plugin logic.");
	}
	catch (Exception e)
	{
		log.ExecutionFailed();
		log.Log(e, context);

		throw new InvalidPluginExecutionException(e.Message, e);
	}
	finally
	{
		log.LogExecutionEnd();
	}
}

private void Test(CrmLog log)
{
	log.LogFunctionStart();

	try
	{
		log.Log("Some info.");
	}
	catch (Exception e)
	{
		log.Log(e);
		throw;
	}
	finally
	{
		log.LogFunctionEnd();
	}
}

CrmLog class can be found in either Common.cs in the DynamicsCrm-Libraries repository (for plugins), or LinkDev.Libraries on NuGet (for web/console apps).

• Generic Base solution (DynamicsCrm-BaseSolution)

• Changed: moved to a new namespace

• Added: processing plugin
• Changed: cleaned the project of obsolete components
