| 2 | This package contains the lttd, lttctl and liblttctl programs which are |
| 3 | necessary to obtain a trace. It also contains the facilities directory, where |
| 4 | sits the trace metainformation. |

| 6 | * Compiling |
| 7 | |
| 8 | gcc 3.2 or better |
| 9 | glib 2.4 or better development libraries |
| 10 | (Debian : libglib2.0-0, libglib2.0-dev) |
| 11 | (Fedora : glib2, glib2-devel) |
| 12 | libc6 development librairies |
| 13 | (Debian : libc6, libc6-dev) |
| 14 | (Fedora : glibc, glibc) |
| 15 | |
| 16 | |
| 17 | To compile the source tree from a tarball, simply follow these steps : |
| 18 | |
| 19 | - ./configure |
| 20 | - make |
| 21 | - make install |
| 22 | |
| 23 | After running ./configure, you can also go in specific subdirectories and |
| 24 | use make, make install. |

| 31 | * Source Tree Structure |
| 32 | |
| 33 | Here is the tree structure of the Linux Trace Toolkit Viewer package. |
| 34 | |
| 35 | ltt: new trace format reading library. |
| 36 | README: This file. |
| 37 | liblttctl: Library to communicate with the kernel tracer control module. |
| 38 | lttctl: Command line program to use the liblttctl library. |
| 39 | lttd: Linux Trace Toolkit daemon. |

| 42 | * For Developers |
| 43 | |
| 44 | This source tree is based on the autotools suite from GNU to simplify |
| 45 | portability. Here are some things you should have on your system in order to |
| 46 | compile the subversion repository tree : |
| 47 | |
| 48 | |
| 49 | GNU autotools (automake-1,7, autoconf2.50, autoheader2.50) |
| 50 | (make sure your system wide "automake" points to version 1.7!) |
| 51 | GNU Libtool |
| 52 | (for more information, go to http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/) |
| 53 | |
| 54 | If you get the tree from the repository, you will need to use the autogen.sh |
| 55 | script. It calls all the GNU tools needed to prepare the tree configuration. |
