设置事件消息格式

事件可以包含可设置显示格式的本地化消息字符串。 若要从事件获取消息字符串,请调用 EvtFormatMessage 函数。 事件可以包含以下消息字符串:

  • 事件本身的消息字符串。
  • 描述分配给事件的级别值的消息字符串。
  • 描述分配给事件的任务值的消息字符串。
  • 描述分配给事件的操作码值的消息字符串。
  • 描述分配给事件的关键字 (keyword) 值的消息字符串。
  • 描述分配给事件的通道值的消息字符串。

还可以使用 EvtFormatMessage 获取提供程序的消息字符串或包含事件和所有消息字符串的 XML 字符串。

除了从查询的事件获取消息字符串外,还可以从提供程序的元数据获取消息字符串。 有关根据从提供程序元数据获取的消息标识符设置消息格式的详细信息,请参阅 获取提供程序的元数据

以下示例演示如何从事件获取消息字符串。
