EventLog::EnableRaisingEvents Property
Gets or sets a value indicating whether the EventLog receives EntryWritten event notifications.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| InvalidOperationException | The event log is on a remote computer. |
The EnableRaisingEvents property determines whether the EventLog raises events when entries are written to the log. When the property is true, components that receive the EntryWritten event will receive notification any time an entry is written to the log that is specified in the Log property. If EnableRaisingEvents is false, no events are raised.
Note |
|---|
You can receive event notifications only when entries are written on the local computer. You cannot receive notifications for entries written on remote computers. |
The following example handles an EntryWritten event.
#using <System.dll> using namespace System; using namespace System::Diagnostics; using namespace System::Threading; ref class MySample { public: static void MyOnEntryWritten( Object^ /*source*/, EntryWrittenEventArgs^ e ) { Console::WriteLine( "Written: {0}", e->Entry->Message ); } }; int main() { EventLog^ myNewLog = gcnew EventLog; myNewLog->Log = "MyCustomLog"; myNewLog->EntryWritten += gcnew EntryWrittenEventHandler( MySample::MyOnEntryWritten ); myNewLog->EnableRaisingEvents = true; Console::WriteLine( "Press \'q\' to quit." ); // Wait for the EntryWrittenEvent or a quit command. while ( Console::Read() != 'q' ) { // Wait. } }
for writing the event log information on the computer. Associated enumeration: EventLogPermissionAccess::Write
