Provides tools to ease development using Event Tracing for Windows (ETW).
Includes the following:
-
Event Trace Kit: A Visual Studio extension to consume real-time ETW traces. It provides a highly customizable and filterable trace log tool window. Trace sessions can be automatically started whenever a project is started from Visual Studio (even without debugging) offering a compelling alternative to the default output window and APIs such as OutputDebugString.
Download this extension from the VS Marketplace.
-
EventManifestFramework: .NET library to parse ETW instrumentation manifests (*.man files) -
EventManifestCompiler: Used to compile ETW instrumentation manifests. Generates ETW binary templates and message tables to be embedded in provider executables as well es C++ logging code. Functions as a modern alternative to Message Compiler (mc.exe). -
EventManifestCompiler.Build.Tasks: Nuget package that integrates the manifest compiler into C++ MSBuild projects.
Requires
- Visual Studio 2017 with C# / C++ (v141) and VS extension development workloads
- Windows SDK 10.0.16299.0
- Boost
- Google Test
To build the Visual Studio extension, run msbuild etk.build.proj -t:Pack in the
root directory. For the manifest compiler and MSBuild tasks run
msbuild emc.build.proj -t:Pack. See the dist directory for build artifacts.
