EventLog 源source System.UnauthorizedAccess

还是这样写eventlog吧(不然会报错:

System.UnauthorizedAccess  1001 

        public static void WriteEntry(string source, string message, EventLogEntryType type, int eventID,short category,
                               byte[] rawData) {
            EventLog log = new EventLog();
            try {
                log.Source = source;
                log.WriteEntry(message, type, eventID, category, rawData);
            }
            finally {
                log.Dispose(true);
            }
