Provider (RenderingInfoType) The rendered message string for the provider.
RenderingInfo (EventType) Contains the rendered message strings for the event (includes the event's message string and the message strings for any of the event's properties such as level, task, and opcode).
Security (SystemPropertiesType) Identifies the user that logged the event.

SubComponent (DebugDataType) Specifies the SubComponentName WPP debug tracing field that is used in debug events in debug channels.
System (EventType) Contains information that identifies the provider and how it was enabled, the event, the channel to which the event was written, and system information such as the process and thread IDs.
Task (RenderingInfoType) The rendered message string of the task specified in the event.
