CustomData

Type: IDictionary<String, String>

LogifyAlert client = LogifyAlert.Instance;

OfflineReportsCount

Type: Integer
Default value: 0

OfflineReportsDirectory

Type: String
Default value: "offline_reports"

Specifies a directory path that will be used to store reports once an Internet connection is lost. Reports are only saved when the OfflineReportsEnabled property is set to true.

client.OfflineReportsEnabled = true; client.OfflineReportsDirectory = "<directory-for-offline-reports>";

OfflineReportsEnabled

Type: Boolean
Default value: false

Specifies whether or not Logify should store the last OfflineReportsCount reports once an Internet connection is lost. To send the kept reports once an Internet connection is available, call the SendOfflineReports method.

ProxyCredentials

Type: ICredentials
Default value: null

Specifies proxy credentials (a user name and a password) to be used by Logify Alert to authenticate within your system proxy server. The use of this property resolves the "407 Proxy Authentication Required" proxy error.

client.ProxyCredentials = new NetworkCredential("MyProxyUserName", "MyProxyPassword");

client.RemoteConfigurationFetchInterval = 5;

Tags

Type: IDictionary<String, String>

A key is a tag name (a string that consists of a-z, A-Z, 0-9, and _ characters), and a value is a tag value that is saved to a report. A new tag is added with Allow search enabled.

client.Tags["tag_name"] = "tag_value";

Default value: null

Specifies a unique user identifier that corresponds to a sent report.

client.UserId = "user@myapp.com";

TrackArguments

Collects arguments passed to the invoked method. Call this method when handling an exception that occurs during a method execution.

• TrackArguments(Exception ex, object instance, params object[] args)
• TrackArguments(Exception ex, int frameCount, MethodCallInfo call)

• TrackArguments(Exception ex, MethodCallInfo call, int skipFrames)

public void DoWork(string work) {   LogifyAlert.Instance.ResetTrackArguments();   try {     DoInnerWork(work, 5);     LogifyAlert.Instance.ResetTrackArguments();   }   catch (Exception ex) {     LogifyAlert.Instance.TrackArguments(ex, work);     throw;   } } public void DoInnerWork(string innerWork, int times) {   LogifyAlert.Instance.ResetTrackArguments();   try {     object o = null;     o.ToString();     LogifyAlert.Instance.ResetTrackArguments();   }   catch (Exception ex) {     LogifyAlert.Instance.TrackArguments(ex, this, innerWork, times);     throw;   } }

See the Collect Method Arguments document for details.

ResetTrackArguments

Removes method argument values which TrackArguments collected. Call ResetTrackArguments before a method execution and after method execution succeeds.

Send

Generates a crash report based on the caught exception and sends this report to the Logify Alert service.

• Send(Exception ex)

  Generates a crash report based on the caught exception and sends this report to the Logify Alert service.

  try {   RunCode(); } catch (Exception e) {   client.Send(e); }

• Send(Exception ex, IDictionary<String, String> additionalCustomData)

  Sends the caught exception with specified custom data to the Logify Alert service.

  try {   RunCode(); } catch (Exception e) {   var data = new Dictionary<String, String>();   data["FailedOperation"] = "RunCode";   client.Send(e, data); }

• Send(Exception ex, IDictionary<String, String> additionalCustomData, AttachmentCollection additionalAttachments)

  Sends the caught exception with specified custom data and attachments to the Logify Alert service.

  try {   RunCode(); } catch (Exception e) {   var data = new Dictionary<String, String>();   data["FailedOperation"] = "RunCode";   Attachment newAt = new Attachment();   newAt.Name = "MyAttachedImage.jpg";   newAt.Content = File.ReadAllBytes(@"C:\Work\Image_to_attach.jpg");   // We strongly recommend that you specify the attachment type.   newAt.MimeType = "image/jpeg";   AttachmentCollection newCol = new AttachmentCollection();   newCol.Add(newAt);   client.Send(e, data, newCol); }

SendAsync

Generates a crash report based on the caught exception and sends this report to the Logify Alert service asynchronously.

• SendAsync(Exception ex)

  Generates a crash report based on the caught exception and sends this report to the Logify Alert service asynchronously.

  try {   RunCode(); } catch (Exception e) {   client.SendAsync(e); }

• SendAsync(Exception ex, IDictionary<String, String> additionalCustomData)

  Sends the caught exception with specified custom data to the Logify Alert service asynchronously.

  try {
  RunCode(); } catch (Exception e) {   var data = new Dictionary<String, String>();   data["FailedOperation"] = "RunCode";   client.SendAsync(e, data); }

• SendAsync(Exception ex, IDictionary<String, String> additionalCustomData, AttachmentCollection additionalAttachments)

  Sends the caught exception with specified custom data and attachments to the Logify Alert service asynchronously.

  try {   RunCode(); } catch (Exception e) {   var data = new Dictionary<String, String>();   data["FailedOperation"] = "RunCode";   Attachment newAt = new Attachment();   newAt.Name = "MyAttachedImage.jpg";   newAt.Content = File.ReadAllBytes(@"C:\Work\Image_to_attach.jpg");   // We strongly recommend that you specify the attachment type.   newAt.MimeType = "image/jpeg";   AttachmentCollection newCol = new AttachmentCollection();   newCol.Add(newAt);   client.SendAsync(e, data, newCol); }

SendOfflineReports

Sends all reports saved in the OfflineReportsDirectory folder to the Logify Alert service.

StartExceptionsHandling

Commands Logify Alert to start listening to uncaught exceptions and sends reports for all processed exceptions.

client.StartExceptionsHandling();

StopExceptionsHandling

Commands Logify Alert to stop listening to uncaught exceptions.

client.StopExceptionsHandling();

AfterReportException

Occurs after Logify Alert sends a new crash report to the service.

LogifyAlert.Instance.AfterReportException += OnAfterReportException; void OnAfterReportException(object sender, AfterReportExceptionEventArgs e) {   MessageBox.Show("A new crash report has been sent to Logify Alert", "Crash report", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information); }

BeforeReportException

Occurs before Logify Alert sends a new crash report to the service.

The BeforeReportException event occurs between the CanReportException event and sending a new report to the Logify Alert service. If the report send is canceled in the CanReportException event's handler, the report is not sent and the BeforeReportException event isn't raised.

Handle the BeforeReportException event to add custom data to the sent report. To do this, assign the required data to the CustomData property.

LogifyAlert.Instance.BeforeReportException += OnBeforeReportException; void OnBeforeReportException(object sender, BeforeReportExceptionEventArgs e) {   LogifyAlert.Instance.CustomData["LoggedInUser"] = "Mary"; }

CanReportException

Occurs between generating a new crash report and raising the BeforeReportException event.

The CanReportException event occurs right after a new report is generated and is prepared to be sent to the Logify Alert service. Handle the CanReportException event to cancel the report send. To do this, assign true to the appropriate CanReportExceptionEventArgs's Cancel property. Thus, the generated report is not posted to the service and the BeforeReportException isn't raised.

LogifyAlert.Instance.CanReportException += OnCanReportException; void OnCanReportException(object sender, CanReportExceptionEventArgs args) {   if (args.Exception is MyCustomException)     args.Cancel = true; }

ConfirmationDialogShowing
(WinFroms and WPF clients only)

If you set the ConfirmSendReport property to true, the ConfirmationDialogShowing event occurs before showing the confirmation dialog and allows you to customize the confirmation window's appearance.

LogifyAlert.Instance.ConfirmationDialogShowing += Instance_ConfirmationDialogShowing; private void Instance_ConfirmationDialogShowing(object sender, ConfirmationDialogEventArgs e) {   ConfirmWindow w = new ConfirmWindow(e.Model);   // Commands Logify to not show the standard conformation dialog   e.Handled = true;   // Shows the custom confirmation window   w.ShowDialog();   Environment.Exit(1); }

LogifyIgnoreAttribute

Indicates that exceptions thrown from a specific method should not be handled and sent to Logify Alert.

[LogifyIgnore(true)] void ThisMethodShouldNotReportAnyExceptions() {   RunSomeCode(); }
