NAME
tttracefile - script of settings for ToolTalk tracing
DESCRIPTION
A tttrace script contains settings that control ToolTalk calls and mes-
sages. A tttrace script consists of commands separated by semicolons
or newlines. The first command must be the version command.
Commands
If conflicting values are given for a setting, the last value wins.
version n
The version of the tttracefile command syntax used. The current
version is 1.
follow [off | on]
Sets whether to follow all children forked by the traced client
or subsequently started in the traced session. Default is off.
[> | >>] outfile
File to be used for the trace output. By default, trace output
goes to standard error. Normal sh(1) interpretation of > and >>
applies.
functions [all | none | func...]
ToolTalk API functions to trace. func may include sh(1) wild-
card characters. Default is all.
attributes [all | none]
none means use only a single line when printing a message on the
trace output. all means print all attributes, arguments, and
context slots of traced messages. Default is none.
states [none | edge | deliver | dispatch | Tt_state]...
State(s) through which to trace messages. In addition to the
Tt_states defined in tt_c.h, valid states are:
o none - disable all message tracing
o edge - messages entering initial (TT_SENT) and final (TT_HAN-
DLED, TT_FAILED) states.
o deliver - all state changes and all client deliveries.
o dispatch - deliver + all patterns considered for matching.
(default)
ops toTrace...
sender_ptypes toTrace...
handler_ptypes toTrace...
Trace messages that have toTrace as a value for the indicated mes-
sage attribute. toTrace may include sh(1) wildcard characters.
If no toTrace argument is included for a given message attribute,
then no value of that attribute excludes a message from tracing.
Comments
A word beginning with # causes that word and all the following charac-
ters up to a newline to be ignored.
EXAMPLES
To trace all attribute-getting and -setting messages sent by ptype
starting with "Dt",
version 1
ops Get* Set*
sender_ptypes Dt*
To trace only ToolTalk function calls (but not messages) in a process
tree,
version 1; follow on; states none
