The following code example shows the use of the SessionChangeDescription class in an implementation of the OnSessionChange method in a class derived from ServiceBase. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the ServiceBase class.

    ' Handle a session change notice 
    Protected Overrides Sub OnSessionChange(ByVal changeDescription As SessionChangeDescription)
#If LOGEVENTS Then
        System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("SimpleService.OnSessionChange", DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString() + " - Session change notice received: " + changeDescription.Reason.ToString() + "  Session ID: " + changeDescription.SessionId.ToString())
#End If 

        Select Case changeDescription.Reason
            Case SessionChangeReason.SessionLogon
                userCount += 1
#If LOGEVENTS Then
                System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("SimpleService.OnSessionChange", DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString() + " SessionLogon, total users: " + userCount.ToString())
#End If 
            Case SessionChangeReason.SessionLogoff

                userCount -= 1
#If LOGEVENTS Then
                System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("SimpleService.OnSessionChange", DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString() + " SessionLogoff, total users: " + userCount.ToString())
#End If 
            Case SessionChangeReason.RemoteConnect
                userCount += 1
#If LOGEVENTS Then
                System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("SimpleService.OnSessionChange", DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString() + " RemoteConnect, total users: " + userCount.ToString())
#End If 
            Case SessionChangeReason.RemoteDisconnect
                userCount -= 1
#If LOGEVENTS Then
                System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("SimpleService.OnSessionChange", DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString() + " RemoteDisconnect, total users: " + userCount.ToString())
#End If 
            Case SessionChangeReason.SessionLock
#If LOGEVENTS Then
                System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("SimpleService.OnSessionChange", DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString() + " SessionLock")

        End Select
