Examples WindowsEventLogBackend

WindowsEventLogBackend example

WindowsEventLogBackend

This Windows-only example writes logme records to Windows Event Log.

The example creates a separate channel, attaches WindowsEventLogBackend, sets the event source, event id, category, and enables asynchronous delivery. It is intentionally excluded from non-Windows builds.

The example target links ws2_32 together with logme, matching other Windows examples in this tree.
