Event Logging other than event id 1000 #352
Comments
Truthfully, I'm not sure why this would be failing. The event logging code was written a very long time ago, and it worked with custom IDs... but I haven't tested it in a very long time. The only thing I can think of is the encoding. The event ID may need to be a Uint32, which JS won't handle by default. That's just a guess though. Unfortunately, I do not have time to look into this, so I'll mark it as "help wanted". |
Looking at how events are created in the code, I saw it used eventcreate. Looking at the docs, I noticed something that might be key: It seems the ID can only be between 1 and 1000. From here
|
Interesting, but very strange. In my event log, I see tons of event ids higher than 1000. a) eventcreate is used under the hood Thank you very much for your input! |
It would be int <= 1000 |
I just added notes about this to the README. |
@miquelfire: so the id can be negative also? @coreybutler: future users will thank you for that :-) |
The valid values are 1 to 1000. I assume if there was direct access to the event log API instead of using eventcreate, we could use higher values. |
Hi,
I would like to write specific event ids to be able to easily identify the problem when something goes wrong. The standard id 1000 works flawlessly, but eg.
log.info('beginning of program, initializing...', 1001)
results in windows popping up a message that the program wants to change the system for a user defined event and no entry is written.
I am not sure, if I am doing something wrong...
maybe?
Thanx!
