Trace

What is the trace?

I found a class and a tool... but what for?

Is it a particular log file?
How can I use it?

There's lot of tracing tools, MFC TRACE macro jumps to mind, as does .NET's Trace class. Where did you find it?

It's installed when you install the VS 2005 IDE.

If I don't wrong there is something like it in VC++ 6 also.

But I didn't understand what it's in general.

That still doesn't narrow it down. Are you talking about the "MFC-ATL Trace Tool"?

I talking about that tool and I talking about Trace class too.
Tnx

That tool is useful to display tracing info generated by an MFC program with the TRACE macro. The Trace class is a managed .NET class, useful to generate tracing info in a C++/CLI program. Check the docs on how to use them...
