Ben There is some bit fiddling going on here - i have never looked at it too closely - after I got it working i'm almost afraid to.
But - here are the first few lines of .h file that gets created. These comments document the extra bits that get or'd into the message IDs. I think this probably explains some of what you are asking about. (you can ignore the "CAT" stuff - it has to do with message "categories" that this app uses. -ns http://www.roserox.co.th #define CAT_BASIC 1 // // Values are 32 bit values layed out as follows: // // 3 3 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 // 1 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 // +---+-+-+-----------------------+-------------------------------+ // |Sev|C|R| Facility | Code | // +---+-+-+-----------------------+-------------------------------+ // // where // // Sev - is the severity code // // 00 - Success // 01 - Informational // 10 - Warning // 11 - Error // // C - is the Customer code flag // // R - is a reserved bit // // Facility - is the facility code // // Code - is the facility's status code // // // Define the facility codes // // // Define the severity codes // // // MessageId: 0x00000001L (No symbolic name defined) // // MessageText: // // IFRTS Basic // #define CAT_STARTUP 2 // // MessageId: 0x00000002L (No symbolic name defined) // // MessageText: // // Shutdown // #define CAT_SHUTDOWN 3 // // MessageId: 0x00000003L (No symbolic name defined) // // MessageText: // // Shutdown // #define CAT_CategoryCount 3 // CAT_BASIC messages // // MessageId: MC_SERVICE_STARTED // // MessageText: // // Service started // #define MC_SERVICE_STARTED 0x00001000L [...] snip ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vaughan, Benjamin Carl" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Multiple recipients of list delphi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2001 8:12 AM Subject: RE: [DUG]: Event Log interaction with Delphi > Thanks Nello & Myles, > > I have used MC and created a .rc and .bin file which I have been able to > successfully add to my Delphi project and compile it.
