Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of the EventLogEntry class. In this example, a switch statement uses console input to search for event log entries for the specified event type. If a match is found, log entry source information is displayed at the console.

#using <System.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Diagnostics;

int main()
{
   String^ myEventType = nullptr;
   
   // Associate the instance of 'EventLog' with local System Log.
   EventLog^ myEventLog = gcnew EventLog( "System","." );
   Console::WriteLine( "1:Error" );
   Console::WriteLine( "2:Information" );
   Console::WriteLine( "3:Warning" );
   Console::WriteLine( "Select the Event Type" );
   int myOption = Convert::ToInt32( Console::ReadLine() );
   switch ( myOption )
   {
      case 1:
         myEventType = "Error";
         break;

      case 2:
         myEventType = "Information";
         break;

      case 3:
         myEventType = "Warning";
         break;

      default:
         break;
   }
   EventLogEntryCollection^ myLogEntryCollection = myEventLog->Entries;
   int myCount = myLogEntryCollection->Count;
   
   // Iterate through all 'EventLogEntry' instances in 'EventLog'.
   for ( int i = myCount - 1; i > -1; i-- )
   {
      EventLogEntry^ myLogEntry = myLogEntryCollection[ i ];
      
      // Select the entry having desired EventType.
      if ( myLogEntry->EntryType.Equals( myEventType ) )
      {
         // Display Source of the event.
         Console::WriteLine( "{0} was the source of last event of type {1}", myLogEntry->Source, myLogEntry->EntryType );
         return 0;
      }
   }
}

Remarks

You usually will not create instances of EventLogEntry directly when working with the EventLog class. The Entries member of the EventLog class contains a collection of EventLogEntry instances, which you iterate over when reading by using the EventLogEntryCollection.Item[] class index member.

Important

This type implements the IDisposable interface. When you have finished using the type, you should dispose of it either directly or indirectly. To dispose of the type directly, call its Dispose method in a try/catch block. To dispose of it indirectly, use a language construct such as using (in C#) or Using (in Visual Basic). For more information, see the "Using an Object that Implements IDisposable" section in the IDisposable interface topic.
