== COMPONENT CLASSES

compcls:filter.utils.muxer::
    Muxes messages by time.
+
See man:babeltrace2-filter.utils.muxer(7).

compcls:filter.utils.trimmer::
    Discards all the consumed messages with a time outside a given
    time range, effectively ``cutting'' trace streams.
+
See man:babeltrace2-filter.utils.trimmer(7).

compcls:sink.utils.counter::
    Prints the number of consumed messages, either once at the end or
    periodically.
+
See man:babeltrace2-sink.utils.counter(7).

compcls:sink.utils.dummy::
    Consumes messages and discards them (does nothing with them).
+
This is useful for testing and benchmarking a trace processing graph
application, for example.
+
See man:babeltrace2-sink.utils.dummy(7).
