Win32::Eventlog
This module makes the Windows NT event log accessible to
your Perl programs. It allows you to create new records, read records,
and create backup logfiles. The new
constructor opens a server’s event log as an object:
$log = Win32::EventLog->new(source
, [server
]);
This function opens an event log and returns an object
reference. source
specifies the name of the
source event, and server
specifies the name
of the server (local
is assumed if
no server name is given).
Many of the methods for this module require a reference to an empty variable as an argument. This is how the return value of the method will be placed, whether it is a hash or a scalar. The following methods can be used on event log objects.
