How to generate MpiTraceEvents.h header?

[MiZhangWhuer]

Hi, thanks for the open source project. When I trying to compile from source code using VisualStudio 2017, the solution always prompts: could not find the header
#include "MpiTraceEvents.h" (mpitrace.h)

Would you please provide the way to generate this header file?

This file should be generated during the build process automatically but you need to have the Windows Driver Kit (WDK) installed. In #48 you can find the link to a patch file that you can apply to remove the WDK dependency and allow to generate the MpiTraceEvents.h directly with mc.exe.
