The C++ Build Insights SDK is compatible with Visual Studio 2017 and later. To see the documentation for these versions, set the Visual Studio Version selector control for this article to Visual Studio 2017 or later. It's found at the top of the table of contents on this page.

The StopAndAnalyzeTracingSession function stops an ongoing tracing session and saves the resulting trace in a temporary file. An analysis session is then immediately started using the temporary file as an input. Executables calling this function must have administrator privileges.

Syntax

template <typename... TAnalyzerGroupMembers>
RESULT_CODE StopAndAnalyzeTracingSession(
    const char*                                   sessionName,
    unsigned                                      numberOfAnalysisPasses,
    TRACING_SESSION_STATISTICS*                   statistics,
    StaticAnalyzerGroup<TAnalyzerGroupMembers...> analyzerGroup);

template <typename... TAnalyzerGroupMembers>
RESULT_CODE StopAndAnalyzeTracingSession(
    const wchar_t*                                sessionName,
    unsigned                                      numberOfAnalysisPasses,
    TRACING_SESSION_STATISTICS*                   statistics,
    StaticAnalyzerGroup<TAnalyzerGroupMembers...> analyzerGroup);

Parameters

sessionName
The name of the tracing session to stop. Use the same session name as the one passed to StartTracingSession, StartTracingSessionA, or StartTracingSessionW.

numberOfAnalysisPasses
The number of analysis passes to run on the trace. The trace gets passed through the provided analyzer group once per analysis pass.

statistics
Pointer to a TRACING_SESSION_STATISTICS object. StopAndAnalyzeTracingSession writes trace collection statistics in this object before returning.

analyzerGroup
The analyzer group used for the analysis. Call MakeStaticAnalyzerGroup to create an analyzer group. If you wish to use a dynamic analyzer group obtained from MakeDynamicAnalyzerGroup, first encapsulate it inside a static analyzer group by passing its address to MakeStaticAnalyzerGroup.

Return Value

A result code from the RESULT_CODE enum.
