Yes, please, we'll have some of that

Mike,

Yes, Yes, YES!
CALL OSEventLog(Category, Type, EventID, DescriptionText)
  


surely that one is easy using GCI? If you really want it
(excuse the unix version, can error logging from C be that much harder 
in windows?)


#include 

void OSEventLog(int priority, char* message){
syslog(priority, message);
}

If you wanted to get fancy you could even use openlog to specify an 
identifier, logging facility etc.


Come to think of it, I might suggest this one to the boss.

Well, for Windows platforms, you can do something like this (this is from
ECL, but with a tiny bit of code...):

:! eventcreate /t information /id 999 /l System /so MyModule /d "Error Test"

/t = ERROR | WARNING | INFORMATION
/id = Event ID
/l (lowercase L) = APPLICATION OR SYSTEM
/so = SourceName (any text, but most likely it's the offending program name)
/d = Description

There are many other options (you can even specify a different computer to
send the event information to).

Regards,

Jim

Thanks, Jim

That's brilliant ... Except it doesn't work in Transaction State because
you can't do a "DOS /c ...", you get a 'Verb "DOS" illegal when a
transaction is active' error.  Darn, it would have been really useful
otherwise.
That's why we need a UV-supported method.

But actually, if you're on UV 10.1 you can use the new GCI function
"UVRunCommand" [see Issue Number 5616 in the Release Notes] even in
transaction State.
Gee, another reason to upgrade! :-)

Or you could call the windows api functions directly from GCI.
I'd find you the reference in O'Reilly but my Safari tokens for the 
month are all used up.


Either way if its trivial using GCI it can't be that hard to build into 
U2 itself.

Mike,

You can do this, you just tweek the DOS verb to include and H in
attribute 4 or 5. 

Cheers

Changed Attribute 4 from "TICERGM" to "TICERGMH"

And it _does_ work, even stays there when the UV transaction is rolled
back.

Now, I wonder if I can get the SysAdmins to make that change in
Production ...
