Log a function call easily w/ log4net. Shouldn't have performance impact if not set to log. Uses [CallerMemberName] so you don't have to supply it. Usage: logger.InfoCall(()=>new { param1, param2, param3})

	public static class LogExtensions
	{
	public static void InfoCall(this ILog log, Func<object> args = null, [CallerMemberName] string name = "")
	{
	if (log.IsInfoEnabled)
	log.Info(new Message(name, (args != null) ? args() : null));
	}

	public static void DebugCall(this ILog log, Func<object> args = null, [CallerMemberName] string name = "")
	{

	}

	public static string GlobalResolveUrl(string url, object queryStringParams)
	{

Nice easy way of getting formatted C# like serialized text from object graphs. Nice to use for creating unit tests, or checking on intermediary values while debugging.

	public static class DumperExtensions
	{
	public static string DumpToString(this object a, int maxDepth = 16, bool breakCircularRefs = false)
	{
	return new Dumper(a, maxDepth, breakCircularRefs).ToString();
	}

	public static T DumpToConsole<T>(this T a, int maxDepth = 16, bool breakCircularRefs = false)
	{
	Console.Out.WriteLine(DumpToString(a, maxDepth, breakCircularRefs));
