Customizable Event Logger using Silver light Interface and Log Viewer

To design and develop an efficient logging mechanism for a typical software application.

1. Title of the project: Customizable event logger using silver light interface and log viewer.
2. Abstract:
This project implements a Customizable Log Provider System, which is a
customizable log provider system that allows user to harness the existing logging system
to log client side messages to the server. Includes a Silver light interface and Log Viewer.

Client Logging is a log provider system that it is fully customizable, can serialize
and log all Exception types, and allows filtering of messages both on the client and server
sides using custom or inbuilt filters, which so far consists of an IP Address Range Filter,
and a Role Membership filter. It includes an extendible Log provider system, a log
strategy, and a log viewer.
A solid server side logging system is the mainstay of most web based applications.
With the advent of Windows Presentation Foundation, Silver light, and a client side
Common Language Runtime, user will see a shift in focus away from the traditional and
primarily server based logging scenario, to cater to a more client centric environment.
