Creating Custom Performance Counters in Visual C ++

Question

Does anyone know of a method for creating custom performance counters using regular unmanaged Visual C ++?

I know that this can be done easily using managed C ++, but I need to do this using an unmanaged Windows service.

I also know that you can get performance counter data, but I need to create some custom counters and increase them at runtime.

Answer 4

I was looking for something that is easier to implement. I probably have to use this approach. I also showed a colleague (thanks PJ) that there is a Scribble tutorial that has been modified to show how to add a performance counter using ATL classes: PerformanceScribble example: monitoring performance in an MFC application

The big drawback here is that my application currently does not use MFC or ATL, and I will have to add support for it.
