LogEvent

Writes a message to the log target configured by StartLogging.

Syntax: object.LogEvent LogBuffer, EventType

object
required An object expression that evaluates to an _App object. In practice this is the global App object.
LogBuffer
required A String containing the message text to write to the log.
EventType
required A Variant specifying the severity of the event. Accepts the LogEventTypeConstants values: vbLogEventTypeInformation (1), vbLogEventTypeWarning (2), or vbLogEventTypeError (3).

LogEvent writes LogBuffer to the log destination established by a prior call to StartLogging. If logging has not been started, or if the LogMode is vbLogOff, the call has no effect.

Note

LogEvent is currently unimplemented in twinBASIC. The method exists on the _App interface for VB6 source compatibility but does not perform any action at runtime.

Example

This example writes an informational entry to the application log.

App.StartLogging "C:\Logs\MyApp.log", vbLogToFile
App.LogEvent "Application started.", vbLogEventTypeInformation
