I am just starting to write a Dolphin wrapper for the above Windows
(XP/2000/NT) facility but, as is usual, I find that my header file information is too far out of date to contain the required constants. Could some kind soul have a look in the header file for the Windows AdvApi dll (possibly in windows.h or winnt.h if there is no such file as advapi.h) and post the values of any constants that are of the format EVENTLOG_*. There may be others needed but that should be enough at the moment. If there is any interest I will, of course, make the Dolphin wrapper available. TIA Ian |

Ron,
Thanks, that's just what I needed. Ian |

Blair,
> SessionManager>>logEvent:type: (and convenience wrappers #logSuccessEvent:, > #logWarningEvent:, and #logErrorEvent:) provides generic capabilities for > writing to the event log, Ahh, I'd missed those. I checked AdvApiLibrary for exposed methods to read the event log (which, as you surmised, is what I want to do) and when I didn't find them assumed there was no support at all. Thanks for the pointer. Ian |
