WMS_EVENT_LOG_LEVEL

The WMS_EVENT_LOG_LEVEL enumeration type identifies the severity of a logged error.

Syntax

  typedef enum WMS_EVENT_LOG_LEVEL{
  WMS_EVENT_LOG_LEVEL_ERROR  = 0x0001,
  WMS_EVENT_LOG_LEVEL_WARNING  = 0x0002,
  WMS_EVENT_LOG_LEVEL_INFORMATION  = 0x0004
};

Members

WMS_EVENT_LOG_LEVEL_ERROR

Indicates a significant problem that the end user must be informed of. Error events usually indicate a loss of functionality or data. For example, if a plug-in fails, it must, if possible, log an error event. The server disables any plug-in that logs an error. Furthermore, if an authentication or authorization plug-in fails, the server will no longer allow new connections or allow clients that are connected to request actions that require authorization.

WMS_EVENT_LOG_LEVEL_WARNING

Indicates problems that are not immediately significant, but that can lead to future problems. For example, a cache plug-in can log a warning event if disk space becomes low after content has been cached.

WMS_EVENT_LOG_LEVEL_INFORMATION

Indicates infrequent but significant successful operations. For example, a logging plug-in can log an information event if it creates a directory in which to save a log file. A Windows Media server administrator can then use the Windows Event Viewer to determine why a new directory was created.

Remarks

You can use this enumeration in the LogEvent method on the IWMSEventLog interface to send an event notice to the Windows Event Viewer.
