 Finalize  Finalizes a Trace object.
 Valid_State  Returns false iff a Trace object is in an invalid state.
 Operations  
 Initialized  Returns true iff a Trace object has been initialized.

Trace public defined type:

 Trace type  
 Dimensionality  The number of dimensions that the index has.
 Index1, Index2  The index values, which may be modified by the communications package.
 Initialized  Initialization status.
