WinINet ETW Tracing Support in Windows Vista

  • Artículo

In order to enhance debugging of wininet.dll for application developers, Microsoft has added ETW tracing support for this component. The feature will be available beginning with Windows Vista Beta 2 builds.

 

To use the feature, wininet.dll users should open a command prompt window with elevated privileges:

1. Click the Start button, point to All Programs, and then click Accessories.

2. Right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run Elevated or Run as administrator (depending on what Vista build you are running).

Initialize WinINet tracing:

logman start "wininettrace” -p “microsoft-windows-wininet” –o “wininettrace.etl” –ets

 

This command will initialize the ETW framework for WinINet tracing, using wininettrace.etl as the output file for trace data.

 

Log Events:

Run IE or an application that exercises the WinINet APIs

Stop tracing:

 

logman stop “wininettrace” -ets

 

Create a human readable (xml) log file:

 

tracerpt “wininettrace.etl” –y –o “wininetracelog.xml” –of xml

 

This command will generate an XML log file called wininetracelog.xml that contains the WinINet events logged.
