How do I initialize WPP software tracing in a user-mode DLL?

Starting with Windows XP, you can initialize WPP tracing in a user-mode DLL by calling the WPP_INIT_TRACING macro to initialize WPP software tracing.

To avoid errors, use the following method.

  • Call the WPP_INIT_TRACING macro in the DllMain function of the DLL.

  • If your DLL is written in C, add a #define statement for WPP_OLDCC to your source code. Put the definition before the #include statement for the trace message header (.tmh) file. The WPP_OLDCC definition is required only for C code. It is not required for C++.

    For example:

    #define WPP_OLDCC
    #include "init.tmh"
    

You cannot initialize WPP software tracing in a DllMain function on Microsoft Windows 2000. Because WPP runs as part of a service on Windows 2000, initializing software tracing generates a remote procedure call, which is prohibited during DLL initialization.
