The major difference between EventLog and syslog +is that EventLog tries to add structure to messages. + +Where you had a simple non-structrured string in syslog() you have a +combination of description and tag/value pairs. + +EventLog provides an interface to build, format and output an event record. +The exact format and output method can be customized by the administrator +via a configuration file. |
