A Simple aspect oriented logger
The type T, what we want to decorate with logging, has to implement an interface, cannot be sealed, and cannot be abstract as these are the precondition of the System.Reflection.DispatchProxyGenerator.GenerateProxyType(Type baseType, Type interfaceType) method.
The ILogger interface has just a single function: void Log(LogEntry logEntry). How the logging exactly happens is up to the user.
Right now the code logs 3 type of events: Invoke, Leave, and Exception. Every event generates a LogEntry which will be logged by the ILogger. There is a default implementation of the ILogEntryBuilder which can be easily replaced by a custom implementation of the ILogEntryBuilder interface.
Example Usage
var calc = LoggingProxy<ICalculator>.Create(new Calculator(),
new ConsoleLogger(),
new LogEntryBuilder());
calc.Add(1, 2);
calc.Divide(12, 0);If we decorate T with the LoggingProxy the logging will be completely automatic.
