Logging and emailing errors

[John]

Hi

I would like to be able to log as much info as possible about an error in my
app and the critical ones to be emailed to me. Is there a pre-built
library/control that would do that?

Many Thanks

Regards

John,

There is "Eventlog" normally the errors you describe go in "applicatio n"

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.diagnostics.eventlog(VS.85).aspx

Very simple to use by the way.

Not that I know of, though it'd only take a matter of minutes to code
one yourself.

By the way, why is this in the ADO.NET newsgroup?

Re: Logging and emailing errors

Take a look at log4net. Just the ticket.

You can try a something like that if your intention is to send e-mail
immediately:

Try

' Job here

Catch ex As Exception
'First, Optionally log them in a text file using StreamWriter
including
' what error "ex" variable exposes
' Mail code implementation here
' See www.systemnetmail.com for mail

Finally
' ....
End Try


Hope this helps,
