public sealed class IisTraceListener : TraceListener

The IisTraceListener type exposes the following members.

  Name Description
Public method IisTraceListener Initializes a new instance of the IisTraceListener class.
Top
  Name Description
Public property Attributes Gets the custom trace listener attributes defined in the application configuration file. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public property Filter Gets and sets the trace filter for the trace listener. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public property IndentLevel Gets or sets the indent level. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public property IndentSize Gets or sets the number of spaces in an indent. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public property IsThreadSafe Gets a value indicating whether the trace listener is thread safe. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public property Name Gets or sets a name for this TraceListener. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Protected property NeedIndent Gets or sets a value indicating whether to indent the output. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public property TraceOutputOptions Gets or sets the trace output options. (Inherited from TraceListener.)

  Name Description
Public method Close When overridden in a derived class, closes the output stream so it no longer receives tracing or debugging output. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method CreateObjRef Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Public method Dispose() Releases all resources used by the TraceListener. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Protected method Dispose(Boolean) Releases the unmanaged resources used by the TraceListener and optionally releases the managed resources. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method Equals(Object) Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method Fail(String) Emits an error message to the listener you create when you implement the TraceListener class. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method Fail(String, String) Emits an error message and a detailed error message to the listener you create when you implement the TraceListener class. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Protected method Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method Flush When overridden in a derived class, flushes the output buffer. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetLifetimeService Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Protected method GetSupportedAttributes Gets the custom attributes supported by the trace listener. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method InitializeLifetimeService Obtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone() Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone(Boolean) Creates a shallow copy of the current MarshalByRefObject object. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method TraceData(TraceEventCache, String, TraceEventType, Int32, Object) Infrastructure. Writes trace information, a data object, and event information to the output of the IisTraceListener class. (Overrides TraceListener.TraceData(TraceEventCache, String, TraceEventType, Int32, Object).)
Public method TraceData(TraceEventCache, String, TraceEventType, Int32, Object[]) Infrastructure. Writes trace information, an array of data objects, and event information to the output of the IisTraceListener class. (Overrides TraceListener.TraceData(TraceEventCache, String, TraceEventType, Int32, Object[]).)
Public method TraceEvent(TraceEventCache, String, TraceEventType, Int32) Writes trace and event information to the listener specific output. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method TraceEvent(TraceEventCache, String, TraceEventType, Int32, String) Infrastructure. Writes trace and event information to the output of the IisTraceListener class. (Overrides TraceListener.TraceEvent(TraceEventCache, String, TraceEventType, Int32, String).)
Public method TraceEvent(TraceEventCache, String, TraceEventType, Int32, String, Object[]) Infrastructure. Writes trace information, a formatted array of objects, and event information to the output of the IisTraceListener class. (Overrides TraceListener.TraceEvent(TraceEventCache, String, TraceEventType, Int32, String, Object[]).)
Public method TraceTransfer Writes trace information, a message, a related activity identity and event information to the listener specific output. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method Write(Object) Writes the value of the object's ToString method to the listener you create when you implement the TraceListener class. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method Write(String) Writes the specified message to the output of the IisTraceListener class. (Overrides TraceListener.Write(String).)
Public method Write(Object, String) Writes a category name and the value of the object's ToString method to the listener you create when you implement the TraceListener class. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method Write(String, String) Writes the specified message and the specified category name to the output of the IisTraceListener class. (Overrides TraceListener.Write(String, String).)
Protected method WriteIndent Writes the indent to the listener you create when you implement this class, and resets the NeedIndent property to false. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method WriteLine(Object) Writes the value of the object's ToString method to the listener you create when you implement the TraceListener class, followed by a line terminator. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method WriteLine(String) Writes the specified message to the output of the IisTraceListener class. (Overrides TraceListener.WriteLine(String).)
Public method WriteLine(Object, String) Writes a category name and the value of the object's ToString method to the listener you create when you implement the TraceListener class, followed by a line terminator. (Inherited from TraceListener.)
Public method WriteLine(String, String) Writes the specified message and category name to the output of the IisTraceListener class. (Overrides TraceListener.WriteLine(String, String).)

The IisTraceListener class connects the tracing mechanism of ASP.NET to IIS 7.0. This listener class enables developers who create ASP.NET applications and who implement the IHttpModule and IHttpHandler interfaces to raise page-level, module-level, or handler-level events to the IIS 7.0 infrastructure when tracing is enabled.

Note Note

This listener class does not route IIS 7.0 events to ASP.NET classes. This includes the Page class and classes that implement the IHttpModule or IHttpHandler interface.

IisTraceListener is introduced in the .NET Framework version 3.5. For more information, see .NET Framework Versions and Dependencies.

Note Note

The HostProtectionAttribute attribute applied to this type or member has the following Resources property value: Synchronization. The HostProtectionAttribute does not affect desktop applications (which are typically started by double-clicking an icon, typing a command, or entering a URL in a browser). For more information, see the HostProtectionAttribute class or SQL Server Programming and Host Protection Attributes.

.NET Framework

Supported in: 4, 3.5 SP1, 3.0 SP1, 2.0 SP1

Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2

The .NET Framework does not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.
Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
