1BabelTrace - Trace Format Babel Tower
2
3This project provides trace read and write libraries, as well as a trace
4converter. A plugin can be created for any trace format to allow its conversion
5to/from another trace format.
6
7The main format expected to be converted to/from is the Common Trace
8Format (CTF). The latest version of the CTF specification can be found at:

68For developers using the git tree:
69
70This source tree is based on the autotools suite from GNU to simplify
71portability. Here are some things you should have on your system in order to
72compile the git repository tree :
73
74- GNU autotools (automake >=1.10, autoconf >=2.50, autoheader >=2.50)
75 (make sure your system wide "automake" points to a recent version!)
76- GNU Libtool >=2.2
77 (for more information, go to http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/)
78- Flex >=2.5.35.
79- Bison >=2.4.
80
81If you get the tree from the repository, you will need to use the "bootstrap"
82script in the root of the tree. It calls all the GNU tools needed to prepare the
83tree configuration.
84
85Running "make check": bash is required.
