Trace in .NET

I'm adding trace functionality to a project and I had almost forgotten System.Diagnostics. It's very easy to use and to config.

Add this to the app.config file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
     <system.diagnostics>
          <sources>
               <source name="TraceTest" switchName="SourceSwitch" switchType="System.Diagnostics.SourceSwitch" >
               <listeners>
                    <add name="FileLogListener" type="Microsoft.VisualBasic.Logging.FileLogTraceListener, Microsoft.VisualBasic, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a, processorArchitecture=MSIL" initializeData="FileLogWriter" append="true" autoFlush="true" baseFilename="ImportService" location="ExecutableDirectory" logFileCreationSchedule="Daily"/>
               </listeners>
               </source>
          </sources>
          <switches>
               <!--add name="SourceSwitch" value="Warning" /-->
               <add name="SourceSwitch" value="Verbose"/>
          </switches>
          <trace autoflush="true" indentsize="4"></trace>
     </system.diagnostics>
</configuration>

Then you use the trace like this:

public partial class MainForm : Form 
{
        private TraceSource m_traceSource = new TraceSource("TraceTest");

        public MainForm()     
       {
            InitializeComponent();
            m_traceSource.TraceEvent(TraceEventType.Information, 0, "The MainForm was successfully started.");
        }
