#### Thread Safety

This type is not safe for multithreaded operations.

#### Remarks

DomainAttribute is obsolete. Use RepositoryAttribute instead of DomainAttribute.

Assemblies are mapped to logging domains. Each domain has its own logging repository. This attribute specified on the assembly controls the configuration of the domain. The Name property specifies the name of the domain that this assembly is a part of. The RepositoryType specifies the type of the repository objects to create for the domain. If this attribute is not specified and a Name is not specified then the assembly will be part of the default shared logging domain.

This attribute can only be specified on the assembly and may only be used once per assembly.

#### Requirements

Namespace: log4net.Config

Assembly: log4net (in log4net.dll)
