Description
The tau_trace2json trace converter takes a TAU formatted tracefile (*.trc) and a TAU event description file (*.edf) and produces an output trace file in json. The user may specify the creation of a json file readable by Chrome's trace viewer. If no output file name is specified with the -o option output will be created in an events.json file in the current directory.
Options
-chrome
Output Chrome readable trace output.
-ignoreatomic
Do not include atomic events in json output. TAU traces include metadata as atomic events so using this option is advised
in general.
-o
Specify an output file other than the default events.json
-nomessage
Suppresses printing of message information in the trace.
-v
Verbose mode sends trace event descriptions to the standard output as they are converted.
