Implements

Count

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to use the Count property to iterate through an EventLogEntryCollection object.

// Create a new EventLog object.
EventLog^ myEventLog1 = gcnew EventLog;
myEventLog1->Log = myLogName;

// Obtain the Log Entries of the Event Log
EventLogEntryCollection^ myEventLogEntryCollection = myEventLog1->Entries;
Console::WriteLine( "The number of entries in 'MyNewLog' = {0}", myEventLogEntryCollection->Count );

// Display the 'Message' property of EventLogEntry.
for ( int i = 0; i < myEventLogEntryCollection->Count; i++ )
{
   Console::WriteLine( "The Message of the EventLog is : {0}", myEventLogEntryCollection[ i ]->Message );
}

// Create a new EventLog object.
EventLog myEventLog1 = new EventLog();
myEventLog1.Log = myLogName;
// Obtain the Log Entries of the Event Log
EventLogEntryCollection myEventLogEntryCollection = myEventLog1.Entries;
Console.WriteLine("The number of entries in 'MyNewLog' = " +
                        myEventLogEntryCollection.Count);
// Display the 'Message' property of EventLogEntry.
for (int i = 0; i < myEventLogEntryCollection.Count; i++)
{
    Console.WriteLine("The Message of the EventLog is :" +
                            myEventLogEntryCollection[i].Message);
}

' Create a new EventLog object.
Dim myEventLog1 As New EventLog()
myEventLog1.Log = myLogName
' Obtain the Log Entries of the Event Log
Dim myEventLogEntryCollection As EventLogEntryCollection = myEventLog1.Entries
Console.WriteLine("The number of entries in 'MyNewLog' = " + _
                           myEventLogEntryCollection.Count.ToString())
' Display the 'Message' property of EventLogEntry.
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To myEventLogEntryCollection.Count - 1
   Console.WriteLine("The Message of the EventLog is :" + _
                  myEventLogEntryCollection(i).Message)
Next i

Remarks

An EventLogEntryCollection represents a dynamic list of all the entries in a log. Therefore, the Count property can change during the lifetime of the EventLogEntryCollection instance that you create. It is usually best to work with the Count property directly instead of assigning its value to a variable.
