SUBJECT: Gem win32-eventlog v0.5.2 on Ruby 1.9.1-1.9.2

 

1.Requirement: Read the latest lines of the Windows Application Event
Viewer to verify deployment status executions.
2. Environment: Ruby 1.9.1 On Windows
win32-eventlog (0.5.2)
windows-api (0.4.0)
windows-pr (1.1.3)
3. Problem: On Ruby 1.8.7 my scripts using win32 evenlog api works fine
but on ruby 1.9.1 they don't. I know the String management has changed
on Ruby 1.9.1 and above.

from bw_logutil.rb:96:in `each'
from bw_logutil.rb:96:in `<main>'
5. Source of Information :
http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/win32-eventlog/
6. Tried Solutions. Tried to use WMI but there is no way to filter the
latest results.

Could someone help me with this.
