Examples

The following example creates the source MySource if it does not already exist, and writes an entry to the event log MyNewLog.

#using <System.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Diagnostics;
using namespace System::Threading;
int main()
{
   
   // Create the source, if it does not already exist.
   if (  !EventLog::SourceExists( "MySource" ) )
   {
      //An event log source should not be created and immediately used.
      //There is a latency time to enable the source, it should be created
      //prior to executing the application that uses the source.
      //Execute this sample a second time to use the new source.
      EventLog::CreateEventSource( "MySource", "MyNewLog" );
      Console::WriteLine( "CreatingEventSource" );
      // The source is created.  Exit the application to allow it to be registered.
      return 0;
   }

   
   // Create an EventLog instance and assign its source.
   EventLog^ myLog = gcnew EventLog;
   myLog->Source = "MySource";
   
   // Write an informational entry to the event log.    
   myLog->WriteEntry( "Writing to event log." );
}
using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Threading;

class MySample{

    public static void Main(){

        // Create the source, if it does not already exist.
        if(!EventLog.SourceExists("MySource"))
        {
             //An event log source should not be created and immediately used.
             //There is a latency time to enable the source, it should be created
             //prior to executing the application that uses the source.
             //Execute this sample a second time to use the new source.
            EventLog.CreateEventSource("MySource", "MyNewLog");
            Console.WriteLine("CreatedEventSource");
            Console.WriteLine("Exiting, execute the application a second time to use the source.");
            // The source is created.  Exit the application to allow it to be registered.
            return;
        }

        // Create an EventLog instance and assign its source.
        EventLog myLog = new EventLog();
        myLog.Source = "MySource";

Remarks

Before calling WriteEntry, specify the Source property of the EventLog instance. If you are only reading Entries from the log, you can alternatively specify only the Log and MachineName properties.

Note

If you do not specify a MachineName, the local computer (".") is assumed.

The following table shows initial property values for an instance of EventLog.

Property Initial Value
Source An empty string ("").
Log An empty string ("").
MachineName The local computer (".").

Remarks

This overload sets the Log property to the logName parameter. Before calling WriteEntry, specify the Source property of the EventLog instance. If you are only reading Entries from the log, you can alternatively specify only the Log and MachineName properties.

Note

If you do not specify a MachineName, the local computer (".") is assumed. This overload of the constructor specifies the Log property, but you can change this before reading the Entries property.

If the source you specify in the Source property is unique from other sources on the computer, a subsequent call to WriteEntry creates a log with the specified name, if it does not already exist.

The following table shows initial property values for an instance of EventLog.

Property Initial Value
Source An empty string ("").
Log The logName parameter.
MachineName The local computer (".").

Remarks

This constructor sets the Log property to the logName parameter, the MachineName property to the machineName parameter, and the Source property to the source parameter. The Source property is required when writing to an event log. However, if you are only reading from an event log, only the Log and MachineName properties are required (as long as the event log on the server has a source already associated with it). If you are only reading from the event log, another overload of the constructor might suffice.

The following table shows initial property values for an instance of EventLog.

Property Initial Value
Source The source parameter.
Log The logName parameter.
MachineName The machineName parameter.
