#### Thread Safety

This type is not safe for multithreaded operations.

#### Remarks

This class provides the code for common functionality, such as support for threshold filtering and support for general filters.

Appenders can also implement the IOptionHandler interface. Therefore they would require that the ActivateOptions method be called after the appenders properties have been configured.

#### Requirements

Namespace: log4net.Appender

Assembly: log4net (in log4net.dll)
