nothing clear for me:

 >>>help(diagMgr.BrowseDiagnosticLog)
Help on builtin_function_or_method in module __builtin__

in Perl the code is slightly different
# get ServiceContent
my $content = Vim::get_service_content();
my $diagMgr = Vim::get_view(mo_ref => $content->diagnosticManager);
# Obtain the last line of the logfile by setting an arbitrarily large
# line number as the starting point
my $log = $diagMgr->BrowseDiagnosticLog(
    key => "hostd",
    start => "999999999");
my $lineEnd = $log->lineEnd;

thanks for your answers
