// Declaration of a Windows event trace controller class.
// The controller takes care of creating and manipulating event trace
// sessions.
//
// Event tracing for Windows is a system-provided service that provides
// logging control and high-performance transport for generic, binary trace
// events. Event trace providers register with the system by their name,
// which is a GUID, and can from that point forward receive callbacks that
// start or end tracing and that change their trace level and enable mask.
//
// A trace controller can create an event tracing session, which either
// sends events to a binary file, or to a realtime consumer, or both.
//
// A trace consumer consumes events from zero or one realtime session,
// as well as potentially from multiple binary trace files.
