Properties of the get-eventlog cmdlet?

[Raheem]

Hi,

I'd like to find the methods and properties of the get-eventlog
cmdlet. But when I try "get-member | get-eventlog" it does not do what
I expect it to. Is there some other way to find the properties for the
get-eventlog cmdlet? Thanks.

Try:

get-eventlog -List | get-member
get-eventlog -List | fl *

Then for each log (using System log as an example)

get-eventlog System | get-member
get-eventlog System | fl *

Code from Larry will work perfectly, so this is just FYI.

More generic approach I like to use sometimes is this:
[System.Diagnostics.EventLog].GetMembers() | Where {$_.MemberType -match
"Property|Method"} | Select Name, MemberType

Of course you can change [System.Diagnostics.EventLog] to any class.
Advantage is that you don't need to have object instance.

Why does that return multiple output with the same Name and MemberType ?

My initial guess would be overloaded methods...
