Detailed Description

Log Engine implementation.

It creates a shared session on the log database and allows log viewers to retrieve events from the log.

The class also provides log administration functions.

Wherever time values are used by this class, they must be specified as UTC rather than local time.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

~CLogClient ( )

IMPORT_C~CLogClient()

Frees all resources owned by the Log Engine object prior to its destruction. In particular, any outstanding asynchronous request is cancelled, the database, the database session and the resource file are all closed.

Member Function Documentation

AddEvent ( CLogEvent &, TRequestStatus & )

IMPORT_C voidAddEvent(CLogEvent &aEvent,

aStatusThe request status. On request completion,contains: KErrNone, if the event has been successfully added to the log database; KErrNotFound, if the event type is not registered with the Log Engine; KErrNotSupported, if the logging of events of this type has been disabled; otherwise, one of the other system wide error codes.

NotifyChange ( TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds32, TRequestStatus & )

IMPORT_C voidNotifyChange(TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds32aDelay,
TRequestStatus &aStatus
)

Requests notification of changes to the Log Engine database. This is an asynchronous request.

The function requires the caller to specify a minimum time that must elapse before this notification request can complete. The Log Engine buffers all changes that occur during this time; the request, then completes after this minimum time period has elapsed. If no changes occur within this time period, then the request completes when the next change to the database occurs.
