log4net - Can I change an appender's properties for specific loggers? -

i have project simulate 3 cranes. want log file generated each crane. i'd rather not have 3 identical appenders differ file name. i'd rather have parent logger specifies standard appender, , child loggers change file name of standard appender leave other appender properties unchanged. possible?

i know can inside program, , that's i'll end doing, i'm curious if can done in configuration file.

the configuration below not work, may give idea of want do:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <log4net>   <appender name="timedrollingappender" type="log4net.appender.rollingfileappender">     <file value="plantgenietimed.log" />     <appendtofile value="true" />     <rollingstyle value="date" />     <datepattern value="yyyymmdd" />     <layout type="log4net.layout.patternlayout">       <conversionpattern value="%date - %message%newline" />     </layout>   </appender>    <logger name="crane" additivity="false">     <appender-ref ref="timedrollingappender" />     <level value="debug" />   </logger>    <logger name="crane.crane1">     <file value="crane1.log" />   </logger>    <logger name="crane.crane2">     <file value="crane2.log" />   </logger>    <logger name="crane.crane3">     <file value="crane3.log" />   </logger>    <root>   </root>  </log4net>
