View 7 RepliesI have an app the writes to the eventlog correctly in xp. The code does not work in win7.
CODE:
I get an error about inaccessable logs:security. I get that. Run as admin it goes away. I do not want to have to do that every time for every user that runs the app. besides they may not have the rights
So I wanted to make an instance of eventlog and set the Log to write to so it does not search the logs and error out on security.
CODE:
Now i get warnings about "Access of shared member, constant member, enum member or nested type through an instance; qualifying expression will not be evaluated."
How the hell else are you to set the log so that the code will work under win7 with normal user rights AND not get this silly warnings?
I have 71 places that I write to the eventlog. that may or may not be too many but that is for another thread.

i'm looking for a solution to get the last 10 eventlogs by date From the windows eventlog (ofcourse)This is what i have now:

I'm working with vb.net in Visual Studio 2010, I have a method which writes entries in eventlog, this work fine in Windows XP but did not in Windows 7, here it throws a security exception.I allready know that this problem is because the user who exectues this assembly does not have permissions to write the registry, so my question is if does not exist some way to give permissions on the fly, something like declarative permissions or something
like that....this is my code:
Public Shared Sub Loguear(ByVal xsSource As String, ByVal xsMessage As String, ByVal xeEventType As EventLogEntryType, _
ByVal xsLogName As String)[code].....
What is the benefit of using TraceListeners and EventLogs. If I can write some code that writes information about the the status of my application to a text file or to a database, why would I bother working with the complicated EventLog and Tracelisteners.
View 6 RepliesI have written a number of programs that query the Event viewer of a windows server box, but have never been able to figure out how to do it from the top of the list. The default appears to be from the bottom up. Normally that would be fine, but I am going to soon be writing an application that runs as a service and polls the Event Log for updates constantly. Where the problem is sitting at right now is out log files are huge and necessarily so. What I want to do is query the logs from the top down and break out once I get to the log time that my previous polling had reached. Is there a way to read from the logs from the top down?I had recently kicked around the idea about passing it into a Collection and scanning it from there, but haven't researched that process too much yet. Not sure if you can control how you scan a collection.

I'm wondering if it's possible to get rid of the anoying Microsoft URL in every Eventlog Entry I write through the Eventlog Class within my Application:
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
As these are entries from my own application, the postfix with this URL makes no sense.
I am having trouble reading the event log on another machine. From what I can gather the .geteventlogs("server01") method should return the logs from the computer named "server01" but it doesn't work for me. It returns the results from the local machine instead.

End If

What are best practices when creating a custom event log for a windows service? I've set my service on a timer so it fires up every day (except weekends) at the same time. For the last 3 days, I've been getting the following error: The source 'DMCS57ExportService' is not registered in log 'DMC S57 Export Log'. (It is registered in log 'DMCS57ExportLog'.) " The Source and Log properties must be matched, or you may set Log to the empty string, and it will automatically be matched to the Source property.Based on that error, I know there's something wrong with the code that creates the custom event log (see below)

Any example to catch errors and log them to the Eventlog? I would like to catch any error and pass them to my WriteToEventLog function. If I use On Error , how could I catch the Error and pass it to my WriteToEventLog function? I would like to catch the actual error

Optional ByVal appName As String = "CompanyName",
Optional ByVal eventType As EventLogEntryType = EventLogEntryType.Information,
Optional ByVal logName As String = "ProductName") As Boolean

I understand that the Event Source cannot be found in the log I am writting to (Application) and the application is attempting to create the Event Source but before it can be registered all Logs need to be reviewed to make sure the Event Source isn't already in use.
My question is how should I go about creating an Event Source that can be used by Standard Users? The application will be operating on a corporate network whereby we lock down all users to the least required privellages.[code]...
I know I can access the local Eventlog using build in functions. However, I need to be able to open and read evt and evtx files save on a remote computer for further analysing.

View 6 RepliesAs I understand it a shallow copy is like a CLONE copy of an object where the values for each property are independent of one another whereas a DEEP copy is a copy that uses the same memory locations and therefore if you change a value in one it is also shown in the second item ( By Reference to the same memory locations ).So my main question is, when dealing with CLASSEs, STRUCTUREs etcetera containing REFERENCE types.is there anyway to quickly create a CLONE or shallow copy of an OBJECT or not ? The only way I can think of is to put the item into a one dimensional array and use the CLONE method for an array. [code]

I'm trying to create a function that will copy the like properties in Agency to Agency_Queries. I figured out how to do that.. but when i try to make it more generic so that i can pass in my class name and lists i'm doing something wrong.So if there is an list(of Agency) that needs to be copied to list(of Agency_Queries) i've got something like the following.
Dim AgencyS As List(Of Agency) = Nothing
