Hi Sebastian,
In our company one of the main lttng applications is to measure latency
between two probes which get same ID as argument. For this purpose we've
implemented in C a special utility which is based on libraries to read CTF
(IIRC). Also some developers often use own simple perl scripts to analyze
babeltrace output.
I wish there is a better way to implement custom CTF analyzers, probably
some basic DSL.
