OpenLogFile Method

Summary

Opens a log file for convert control operation details.

Syntax

C++

public virtual void OpenLogFile( 
   string fileName, 
   LogFileFlags flags 
)

Public Overridable Sub OpenLogFile( _ 
   ByVal fileName As String, _ 
   ByVal flags As LogFileFlags _ 
)

public: 
virtual void OpenLogFile(  
   String^ fileName, 
   LogFileFlags flags 
)

Parameters

fileName
A string that contains the name of the file to be used to save the logging information.

flags
Value that represents the desired logging options. For a list of possible values, refer to LogFileFlags enumeration values.

Remarks

Opens a log file for convert control operation details. Use the CloseLogFile method to stop logging data to the file and close the file. If the filename passed to the filename parameter is an empty string, then the method will return an error. If the filename passed to the filename parameter currently exists, and the LogFileFlags.Append flag has not been passed in the flags parameter the existing file will be overwritten.
