@brief
    Trace stream.

A <strong><em>stream</em></strong> is a conceptual
\ref api-msg-seq "sequence of messages" within a \bt_trace:

@image html trace-structure.png

In the illustration above, notice that:

- A \bt_stream is a conceptual sequence of \bt_p_msg.

  The sequence always starts with a \bt_sb_msg and ends with a
  \bt_se_msg.

- A stream is an instance of a \bt_stream_cls.

- A \bt_trace contains one or more streams.

A stream is a \ref api-tir "trace IR" data object.

A stream is said to be a \em conceptual sequence of messages because the
stream object itself does not contain messages: it only represents a
common timeline to which messages are associated.

\bt_cp_comp exchange messages, within a trace processing \bt_graph,
which can belong to different streams, as long as the stream clocks are
\ref api-tir-clock-cls-origin "correlatable".

A typical use case for streams is to use one for each traced CPU. Then
the messages related to a given stream are the ones which occurred on a
given CPU. Other schemes are possible: they are completely
application-specific, and \bt_name does not enforce any specific
stream arrangement pattern.

A \bt_trace contains streams. All the streams of a
given trace, for a given stream class, have unique numeric IDs. Borrow
the trace which contains a stream with bt_stream_borrow_trace() or
bt_stream_borrow_trace_const().

A \bt_stream can conceptually contain a default clock if its class
has a \ref api-tir-stream-cls-prop-def-clock-cls "default clock class".
There's no function to access a stream's default clock because it's
a stateful object: \bt_p_msg cannot refer to stateful objects
because they must not change while being transported from one
\bt_comp to the other. Instead of having a stream default clock object,
\bt_p_msg have a default \bt_cs: this is a snapshot of the value of a
stream's default clock (a \bt_clock_cls instance):

@image html clocks.png

In the illustration above, notice that:

- Streams (horizontal blue rectangles) are instances of a
  \bt_stream_cls (orange).

- A stream class has a default \bt_clock_cls (orange bell alarm clock).

- Each stream has a default clock (yellow bell alarm clock): this is an
  instance of the stream's class's default clock class.

- Each \bt_msg (objects in blue stream rectangles) created for a given
  stream has a default \bt_cs (yellow star): this is a snapshot of the
  stream's default clock.

  In other words, a default clock snapshot contains the value of the
  stream's default clock when this message occurred.

To create a stream:

<dl>
  <dt>
    If bt_stream_class_assigns_automatic_stream_id() returns
    #BT_TRUE (the default) for the stream class to use
  </dt>
  <dd>Use bt_stream_create().</dd>

  <dt>
    If bt_stream_class_assigns_automatic_stream_id() returns
    #BT_FALSE for the stream class to use
  </dt>
  <dd>Use bt_stream_create_with_id().</dd>
</dl>

A stream is a \ref api-fund-shared-object "shared object": get a
new reference with bt_stream_get_ref() and put an existing
reference with bt_stream_put_ref().

Some library functions \ref api-fund-freezing "freeze" streams on
success. The documentation of those functions indicate this
postcondition.

The type of a stream is #bt_stream.

<h1>Properties</h1>

A stream has the following property:

<dl>
  <dt>\anchor api-tir-stream-prop-id Numeric ID</dt>
  <dd>
    Numeric ID, unique amongst the numeric IDs of the stream's
    \bt_trace's streams for a given \bt_stream_cls. In other words,
    two streams which belong to the same trace can have the same numeric
    ID if they aren't instances of the same class.

    Depending on whether or not the stream's class
    automatically assigns stream IDs
    (see bt_stream_class_assigns_automatic_stream_id()),
    set the stream's numeric ID on creation with
    bt_stream_create() or bt_stream_create_with_id().

    You cannot change the numeric ID once the stream is created.

    Get a stream's numeric ID with bt_stream_get_id().
  </dd>

  <dt>\anchor api-tir-stream-prop-name \bt_dt_opt Name</dt>
  <dd>
    Name of the stream.

    Use bt_stream_set_name() and bt_stream_get_name().
  </dd>

  <dt>
    \anchor api-tir-stream-prop-user-attrs
    \bt_dt_opt User attributes
  </dt>
  <dd>
    User attributes of the stream.

    User attributes are custom attributes attached to a stream.

    Use bt_stream_set_user_attributes(),
    bt_stream_borrow_user_attributes(), and
    bt_stream_borrow_user_attributes_const().
  </dd>
</dl>
