#using <System.dll>

         Console::WriteLine( "Creating EventSource" );
      }

Remarks

Use the EventLogEntryCollection class when reading the entries associated with an EventLog instance. The Entries property of the EventLog class is a collection of all the entries in the event log.

Because new entries are appended to the existing list, stepping through the collection enables you to access the entries that were created after you originally created the EventLogEntryCollection. However, after you view the entire list, it is not updated with new entries.

Properties

Count

Gets the number of entries in the event log (that is, the number of elements in the EventLogEntry collection).

Item[Int32]

Gets an entry in the event log, based on an index that starts at 0 (zero).

Methods

CopyTo(EventLogEntry[], Int32)

Copies the elements of the EventLogEntryCollection to an array of EventLogEntry instances, starting at a particular array index.

Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

(Inherited from Object)
GetEnumerator()

Supports a simple iteration over the EventLogEntryCollection object.

GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

(Inherited from Object)
ToString()

Returns a string that represents the current object.

(Inherited from Object)

Explicit Interface Implementations

ICollection.CopyTo(Array, Int32)

Copies the elements of the collection to an Array, starting at a particular Array index.

ICollection.IsSynchronized

Gets a value that indicates whether access to the EventLogEntryCollection is synchronized (thread-safe).

ICollection.SyncRoot

Gets an object that can be used to synchronize access to the EventLogEntryCollection object.

Extension Methods

Cast<TResult>(IEnumerable)

Casts the elements of an IEnumerable to the specified type.

OfType<TResult>(IEnumerable)

Filters the elements of an IEnumerable based on a specified type.

AsParallel(IEnumerable)

Enables parallelization of a query.

AsQueryable(IEnumerable)

Converts an IEnumerable to an IQueryable.
