Postsharp Resharper Redgate Excessive Logging

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18830243

Question

I have a C# solution containing Postsharp v3, Resharper 8, Redgate SqlBundle and .Net toolbet + some very large T4 template generated code.

When generating code from templates and attempting to open them up a folder on my hard disk ..\AppData\Local\Red Gate\Logs\SQL Connect 1* fills up with 50 MB log files every 4 or 5 seconds. All with very similar content.

Any ideas how to stop this as its crippling my dev environment?

Was it helpful?

Solution

This is caused by the combination of the PostSharp and Redgate behaviors.

PostSharp produces trace messages periodically and they are not written to any file normally. You can see the messages only if you enable the diagnostics window in the advanced PostSharp options.

Redgate on the other hand installs trace listeners that catch messages including those produced by the PostSharp and write them to the log files, on top of that it seems to add a stack trace to each message (even if it's not an exception).

It's an unfortunate combination of factors. As for the PostSharp, there's a fix scheduled that will disable tracing completely unless user enables diagnostics window explicitly.
