Parameters

  A numeric marker.

  The value of the marker must greater than zero.

  A pointer to a text string.

  The text string must contain fewer than 256 characters, including the terminating null character.

The following table shows the values that this function returns.

Return value	Description
MARK_OK	The call was successful.
MARK_ERROR_MODE_OFF	The global profiling level was set to OFF when the function was called. The mark and comment were not recorded.

Remarks

Profiling for the thread containing the CommentMarkProfile function must be ON for Remote Call Profiler to insert the mark and comment.

The Remote Call Profiler Collection Control window inserts marks and comments regardless of the profiling state.

Profile marks are global in scope. For example, a profile mark inserted in one thread can be used to mark the start or end of a data segment in any thread in the .icp file.
