Allows you to subscribe to incoming events. Each time a desired event is published to an event log, the EventRecordWritten event is raised, and the method that handles this event will be executed.
Assembly: System.Core (in System.Core.dll)

The HostProtectionAttribute attribute applied to this type or member has the following Resources property value: MayLeakOnAbort. 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. |
The instances of this class are created from EventLogQuery objects, which specify a query for the event subscription. When an event is logged that matches the criteria expressed in the query, then the EventRecordWritten event is raised.
For example code using this class, see How to: Subscribe to Events in an Event Log.
