11 A new backend named 'foo-bar' corresponds to Python module
12 'tracetool/backend/foo_bar.py'.
14 A backend module should provide a docstring, whose first non-empty line will be
15 considered its short description.
17 All backends must generate their contents through the 'tracetool.out' routine.
23 ========= ====================================================================
25 ========= ====================================================================
26 PUBLIC If exists and is set to 'True', the backend is considered "public".
27 ========= ====================================================================
33 All the following functions are optional, and no output will be generated if
36 =============================== ==============================================
38 =============================== ==============================================
39 generate_<format>_begin(events) Generate backend- and format-specific file
41 generate_<format>_end(events) Generate backend- and format-specific file
43 generate_<format>(event) Generate backend- and format-specific contents
