Log during state machine C++ code execution [message #1810235]

Hello,

I'm looking for a way to follow the execution of state machines during C++ code execution. I would know if there is any tool to help to do that in Papyrus and Papyrus software designer.
The state machine monitoring enables to follow the execution of a state machine visually but I would something more formal.

The ideal way could be to extend the state machine monitoring by adding a side tool to log the state machine execution trace in a file.

Is there any tool which can match this need (more or less)?

Thanks to Papyrus team.

Regards.

Yoann.

Hi Yoann,

we once did some work to have trace support for LTTng, but this work has not been maintained and is unlikely to work. The tracing was not specifically for state-machines, but a general instrumentation mechanism. For your purpose, it would probably be useful to add a specific state-machine instrumentation, but also use LTTng to benefit from the Eclipse-based tooling as well as from a simple Papyrus integration (clicking on a trace event enables navigation to the associated model event).

Hi Ansgar,

Thanks for your reply.

I don't know this tracing framework. but from what I read, we could use it, and as you suggest, add a specific support to monitore state machine execution.

Is this previous work regarding LTTng instrumentation available on a git repository?

Yoann.
