C# 如何调用EventLog

工作原理：

     1.在没有指定logname，仅仅指定了source的时候。

      1.1 source存在

       在写eventlog的时候，首先去找source，如果找到的话，就往这个source所在的log里面写日志。

   EventLog eventLog = new EventLog();
            eventLog.Source = $@"LisaEventLog 2018-04-17 18:37:16.907 +08:00";
            var message =
                $"{AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory}{Environment.NewLine}{AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName} {DateTimeOffset.Now}";
            eventLog.WriteEntry(message, EventLogEntryType.Error);
            Console.WriteLine($@"{eventLog.Log},{eventLog.Source}");

 

      1.2 source 不存在 (直接绑定Application作为logname，然后自动创建一个source)

     https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/

 

    dotnet\corefx\src\System.Diagnostics.EventLog\src\System\Diagnostics\EventLogInternal.cs

    private void VerifyAndCreateSource(string sourceName, string currentMachineName)

     如果log没有指定，默认会使用Application

if (GetLogName(currentMachineName) == null)
this.logName = "Application";

然后自动创建一个event source

  EventLog.CreateEventSource(new EventSourceCreationData(sourceName, GetLogName(currentMachineName), currentMachineName));

  EventLog eventLog = new EventLog();
            eventLog.Source = $@"{nameof(LisaEventLog)} {DateTimeOffset.Now:yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff zzz}";
            var message =
                $"{AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory}{Environment.NewLine}{AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName} {DateTimeOffset.Now}";
            eventLog.WriteEntry(message, EventLogEntryType.Error);
            Console.WriteLine($@"{eventLog.Log},{eventLog.Source}");

 

 

      2.指定logname和source

      2.1 source不存在

            2.1.1 logname也不存在

                    那么会自动创建log和source，然后写log

            2.1.2 logname存在

                   那么会在log下自动创建source，然后写log

      2.2 source存在

            那么这个source肯定有对应的log了，要么不指定log，让系统自动去匹配。上面的1.1

            如果要指定log的话，那么必须指定为正确的，否则会抛出异常

     3. source没有指定

   这个是不允许的

System.ArgumentException : Source property was not set before writing to the event log.
at System.Diagnostics.EventLogInternal.WriteEntry(String message, EventLogEntryType type, Int32 eventID, Int16 category, Byte[] rawData)
at System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry(String message, EventLogEntryType type)

 

 

 

 

 public class LisaEventLog
    {
        private readonly string _logName = @"Lisa";

        public string LogName => _logName;

        public LisaEventLog()
        {
        }

        public LisaEventLog(string logName)
        {
            _logName = logName;
        }

        public void WriteEntry(string error, EventLogEntryType type)
        {
            var sourceName = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName;
            if (!EventLog.SourceExists(sourceName))
            {
                EventLog.CreateEventSource(sourceName, _logName);
            }
            using (EventLog eventLog = new EventLog(_logName))
            {
                eventLog.Source = sourceName;
                var message = $"{AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory}{Environment.NewLine}{error}";
                eventLog.WriteEntry(message, type);
            }
        }
    }

 

左侧栏里面的叫做LogName,每一条event log中的source列，对应的是source

 

EventLog.Entries

 这里的entries是指event log,比如上图中对应有5个。
