Trace Listeners

Hi,
Can anyone tell the advantages/dis-advantages of adding a listener to the
listeners collection? In MSDN it says that listeners not in the collection
do not recieve all trace output. What will be missing?

Hi,

Trace.WriteLine ("Tracing....." );

the statement above sends output to the listeners collection. Consequently,
if a listener is not in the collection, it would not receive such output.
(It would only receive any output sent to it directly, such as
'myTraceListene r.WriteLine("Di rect output");').
Note that the DefaultTraceLis tener is automatically included in the listener
collection.

Thanks. I think I get it now. How does this sound:
Listeners in the collection ALL get written to using
Trace.Write/WriteLineIf() etc, at roughly the same time, but can be written
to individually if stated by name eg myListener. WriteLineIf(). Whereas
Listeners outside of the collection can only be written to by name.

Hi! I have created a custom trace Listener class, called "DBTraceListener" it works fine when i add it manually in code : (eg. Trace.listeners.add(new DBTraceListener("myDBListener", TraceLevel.Verbose, getDBConnection) ) What I'm trying to achieve now is to add this listener via the MyApplication.exe.config file

I would like to start using EventLogTraceListener, and am running into a couple of significant limitations: 1) I have found that there is no way to write EventLog entries with different EventLogEntryTypes. It seems that EventLogTraceListener is only capable of writing entries with EventLogEventType.Informat­ion, even for Trace.Fail. Is this assessment correct? 2) EventLogTraceListener.Flush (and the idea of buffering writes) is not...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
