FunctionEnter Function

Notifies the profiler that control is being passed to a function.

Note The FunctionEnter function is deprecated in the .NET Framework version 2.0. It will continue to work, but will incur a performance penalty. Use the FunctionEnter2 Function function instead.

void FunctionEnter (
        [in]  FunctionID funcID
);

Parameters

Parameter Description

funcID

[in] The identifier of the function to which control is passed.

Remarks

The FunctionEnter function is a callback — you must implement it. The implementation must use the __declspec(naked) storage-class attribute.

You must save all registers that you use, including those in the floating-point processing unit (FPU), because the execution engine does not save any registers prior to calling FunctionEnter.

The implementation of FunctionEnter should not block because it will delay garbage collection (GC) and the implementation should not attempt a GC because the stack may not be in a GC-friendly state. If a GC is attempted, the runtime will block until FunctionEnter returns.

Also, the FunctionEnter function must not call into managed code or in any way cause a managed memory allocation.
