class ACE_Export ACE_Trace
  // = TITLE
  //     A C++ trace facility that keeps track of which methods are
  //     entered and exited.
  //
  // = DESCRIPTION
  //     This class uses C++ constructors and destructors to automate
  //     the ACE_Trace nesting.  In addition, thread-specific storage
  //     is used to enable multiple threads to work correctly.

  // = Initialization and termination methods.

  // N, the LINE, and the ACE_FILE as the function is entered.

  // Perform the second part of the trace, which prints out the NAME
  // as the function is exited.

  // = Control the tracing level.
  static void start_tracing (void);
  // Enable the tracing facility.

  static void stop_tracing (void);

  // Dump the state of an object.
