Examples

The following example shows how to use the Message property to specify an event message. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the EventSource class.

[Event(1, Message = "Application Failure: {0}", Level = EventLevel.Error, Keywords = Keywords.Diagnostic)]
public void Failure(string message) { WriteEvent(1, message); }

<[Event](1, Message:="Application Failure: {0}", Level:=EventLevel.Error, Keywords:=Keywords.Diagnostic)> _
Public Sub Failure(ByVal message As String)
    WriteEvent(1, message)
End Sub

Remarks

You can use standard .NET substitution operators (for example, {1}) in the string. They will be replaced with the string representation of the corresponding part of the event payload.

[Event(1, Message = "Application Failure: {0}", Level = EventLevel.Error, Keywords = Keywords.Diagnostic)]
        public void Failure(string message) { WriteEvent(1, message); }
