    Post Notify Events When Event log is Full

    Hi,

    I have written an application to get notified when any event is written to Application Log.When the code notifies I collect the recently written events and put them in a text file. ( I have reffered the http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...77(VS.85).aspx to develop this application)

    But when Application log is full the code is still waiting for an event to occur and never notifies.

    The question is that whether the NotifyChangeEventLog() function notifies if an Application Log is full.

    Is this the default behaviur of the notifyChangeEventlog() function?.If it is so is there any thing that I can do to handle this situation.

    Please help me in solving this.

    Thanks in advance
    ARD

    Re: Notify Events When Event log is Full

    A couple of options:

    1) Change the log size to a larger log and set the log to overwrite as needed.
    2) [If running Vista 2008 Server] Leverage the functionality of the Windows Event Collector Service.
