Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Trace Namespace

  • Article

The Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Trace namespace contains the SQL Server Trace and Replay objects.

The Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Trace provides an interface for reading trace data from files, tables, or rowsets.

The Trace and Replay objects can do the following:

  • Trace and record events on an instance of SQL Server.

  • Manipulate and analyze trace data.

  • Replay recorded trace events on an instance of SQL Server.

The Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Trace namespace is in the Microsoft.SqlServerConnectionInfoExtended.dll file.

In addition to the Trace and Replay objects, SQL Server traces can be implemented manually by using SQL Server Profiler Reference, or by using the Introducing SQL Trace set of Transact-SQL stored procedures.

Note

The Trace and Replay objects are not supported on a 64-bit platform.

Classes

  Class Description
Public class ReplayEventArgs The ReplayEventArgs object provides programmatic access to the arguments used to report events that occur when replaying trace on an instance of SQL Server.
Public class SqlTraceException The SQLTraceException class represents the general exception raised by the SMO trace objects.
Public class SqlTraceFailToInstantiateTypeException The SQLTraceFailToInstantiateTypeException class represents the exception raised when an SMO trace object operation fails to instantiate an object.
Public class SqlTraceFailToLoadInstAPIAssemblyException The SQLTraceFailToLoadInstAPIAssemblyException class represents the exception raised by the SMO trace objects when an Inst API assembly fails to load.
Public class TraceEventArgs The TraceEventArgs object provides programmatic access to the arguments used to report events that occur when collecting trace from an instance of SQL Server.
Public class TraceFile The TraceFile class is a Trace object that represents a trace log file.
Public class TraceReader The TraceReader class is an abstract Trace Object class that is used in the construction of the TraceServer class, the TraceTable class, and the TraceFile class.
Public class TraceReaderWriter The TraceReaderWriter class is an abstract Trace Objects class that is used in the construction of the TraceTable class and the TraceFile class.
Public class TraceReplay The TraceReplay object is a Replay object that represents the replay operation for trace log files and trace tables.
Public class TraceReplayOptions The TraceReplayOptions object is a Replay object that represents the configuration settings required when replaying a trace.
Public class TraceServer The TraceServer class is a Trace object that represents a new trace on an instance of SQL Server.
Public class TraceTable The TraceTable class is a Trace object that represents a table of trace information.

Interfaces

  Interface Description
Public interface IDataRecordChanger The IDataRecordChanger object is a Trace and Replay object that represents the current record.
Public interface ITraceDataWriter The ITraceDataWriter object provides programmatic access to the data writer for the SQL Trace.

Delegates

  Delegate Description
Public delegate ReplayEventHandler Represents the ReplayEventHandler event handler.
Public delegate ReplayPauseHandler Represents the ReplayPauseHandler event handler.
Public delegate ReplayResultEventHandler Represents the ReplayResultEventHandler event handler.
Public delegate ReplayStartHandler Represents the ReplayStartHandler event handler.
