IAnalyzer class

The IAnalyzer class provides an interface for analyzing an Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) trace. It's used with the MakeDynamicAnalyzerGroup, MakeDynamicReloggerGroup, MakeStaticAnalyzerGroup, and MakeStaticReloggerGroup functions. Use IAnalyzer as a base class to create your own analyzer that can be part of an analyzer or relogger group.

Syntax

class IAnalyzer : public IRelogger
{
public:
    virtual AnalysisControl OnStartActivity(const EventStack& eventStack);
    virtual AnalysisControl OnStopActivity(const EventStack& eventStack)
    virtual AnalysisControl OnSimpleEvent(const EventStack& eventStack);
    virtual AnalysisControl OnBeginAnalysis();
    virtual AnalysisControl OnEndAnalysis();
    virtual AnalysisControl OnBeginAnalysisPass();
    virtual AnalysisControl OnEndAnalysisPass();

    AnalysisControl OnStartActivity(const EventStack& eventStack,
        const void* relogSession) final;

    AnalysisControl OnStopActivity(const EventStack& eventStack,
        const void* relogSession) final;

    AnalysisControl OnSimpleEvent(const EventStack& eventStack,
        const void* relogSession) final;

    AnalysisControl OnBeginRelogging() final;
    AnalysisControl OnEndRelogging() final;
    AnalysisControl OnBeginReloggingPass() final;
    AnalysisControl OnEndReloggingPass() final;

    virtual ~IAnalyzer();
};

Remarks

Classes that derive from IAnalyzer can be used as both analyzers and reloggers. When used as reloggers, the relogger-specific functions redirect to their analyzer equivalent. The reverse isn't true: a class that derives from IRelogger can't be used as an analyzer. Using an analyzer in a relogger group is a common pattern. When placed in an early position of a relogger group, an analyzer can pre-compute information and make it available for reloggers in later positions.

The default return value for all functions that aren't overridden is AnalysisControl::CONTINUE. For more information, see AnalysisControl.

~IAnalyzer

Destroys the IAnalyzer class.

virtual ~IAnalyzer();

OnBeginAnalysis

For analyzers part of an analyzer group, this function is called before the first analysis pass begins. For analyzers part of a relogger group, this function is called before the relogging pass begins. For analyzers part of both the analyzer and relogger group of the same relogging session, this function is called twice before the first analysis pass begins.

virtual AnalysisControl OnBeginAnalysis();

Return Value

An AnalysisControl code that describes what should happen next.

OnBeginAnalysisPass

For analyzers part of an analyzer group, this function is called at the beginning of every analysis pass. For analyzers part of a relogger group, this function is called at the beginning of the relogger pass. For analyzers part of both the analyzer and relogger group of the same relogging session, this function is called at the beginning of every analysis pass, and at the beginning of the relogger pass.

virtual AnalysisControl OnBeginAnalysisPass();

Return Value

An AnalysisControl code that describes what should happen next.

OnBeginRelogging

AnalysisControl OnBeginRelogging() final;

This function can't be overridden. It's called by the C++ Build Insights SDK when an analyzer is part of a relogger group. This function redirects the call to OnBeginAnalysis.

Return Value

The result of the OnBeginAnalysis call.

OnBeginReloggingPass

This function can't be overridden. It's called by the C++ Build Insights SDK when an analyzer is part of a relogger group. This function redirects the call to OnBeginAnalysisPass.

AnalysisControl OnBeginReloggingPass() final;

Return Value

The result of the OnBeginAnalysisPass call.

OnEndAnalysis

For analyzers that are part of an analyzer group, this function is called after the last analysis pass has ended. For analyzers that are part of a relogger group, this function is called after the relogging pass has ended. For analyzers that are part of both the analyzer and relogger group of the same relogging session, this function is called twice:

1. after all analysis passes have ended and before the relogging pass begins, and
2. after the relogging pass has ended.

virtual AnalysisControl OnEndAnalysis();

Return Value

An AnalysisControl code that describes what should happen next.

OnEndAnalysisPass

For analyzers part of an analyzer group, this function is called at the end of every analysis pass. For analyzers part of a relogger group, this function is called at the end of the relogger pass. For analyzers part of both the analyzer and relogger group of the same relogging session, this function is called at the end of every analysis pass, and at the end of the relogger pass.

virtual AnalysisControl OnEndAnalysisPass();

Return Value

An AnalysisControl code that describes what should happen next.

OnEndRelogging

This function can't be overridden. It's called by the C++ Build Insights SDK when an analyzer is part of a relogger group. This function redirects the call to OnEndAnalysis.

AnalysisControl OnEndRelogging() final;

Return Value

The result of the OnEndAnalysis call.

OnEndReloggingPass

This function can't be overridden. It's called by the C++ Build Insights SDK when an analyzer is part of a relogger group. This function redirects the call to OnEndAnalysisPass.

AnalysisControl OnEndReloggingPass() final;

Return Value

The result of the OnEndAnalysisPass call.

OnSimpleEvent

This function is called when a simple event is being processed. The second version of this function can't be overridden. It's called by the C++ Build Insights SDK when an analyzer is part of a relogger group. All calls to version 2 are redirected to version 1.

Version 1

virtual AnalysisControl OnSimpleEvent(const EventStack& eventStack);

Version 2

AnalysisControl OnSimpleEvent(const EventStack& eventStack,
        const void* relogSession) final;

Parameters

eventStack
The event stack for this simple event. For more information on event stacks, see Events.

relogSession
This parameter is unused.

Return Value

An AnalysisControl code that describes what should happen next.

OnStartActivity

This function is called when an activity start event is being processed. The second version of this function can't be overridden. It's called by the C++ Build Insights SDK when an analyzer is part of a relogger group. All calls to version 2 are redirected to version 1.

Version 1

virtual AnalysisControl OnStartActivity(const EventStack& eventStack);

Version 2

AnalysisControl OnStartActivity(const EventStack& eventStack,
        const void* relogSession) final;

Parameters

eventStack
The event stack for this activity start event. For more information on event stacks, see Events.

relogSession
This parameter is unused.

Return Value

An AnalysisControl code that describes what should happen next.

OnStopActivity

This function is called when an activity stop event is being processed. The second version of this function can't be overridden. It's called by the C++ Build Insights SDK when an analyzer is part of a relogger group. All calls to version 2 are redirected to version 1.

Version 1

virtual AnalysisControl OnStopActivity(const EventStack& eventStack);

Version 2

AnalysisControl OnStopActivity(const EventStack& eventStack,
        const void* relogSession) final;

Parameters

eventStack
The event stack for this activity stop event. For more information on event stacks, see Events.

relogSession
This parameter is unused.

An AnalysisControl code that describes what should happen next.
