Hi Jérémie,
Thanks for your prompt reply.
Just to add a little to your answer:
In order to get the event "id" field, we need to call another function as well.
Since the "id" field is declared as an enumerated data type (uint16_t for large
header and uint5_t for compact).
For example, to read the event id, it works only by calling
bt_ctf_get_enum_int(id_field), otherwise it returns 0.
Slight modification to the code sample did the job:
while ((ctf_event = bt_ctf_iter_read_event(iter))) {
const struct bt_definition *stream_event_header_scope =
bt_ctf_get_top_level_scope(
ctf_event, BT_STREAM_EVENT_HEADER);
const struct bt_definition *id_field =
bt_ctf_get_field(
ctf_event, stream_event_header_scope, "id");
printf("id = %" PRIu64 "\n",
bt_ctf_get_uint64(bt_ctf_get_enum_int(id_field))); // change here!!!
But I am getting strange behavior only for the "sched_switch" event.
Each time I read it, it returns 31 in case the header is compact (31 events
max) and 65535 when the header is large instead of the correct value.
For all other "id's" of the event, it returns correct value :-s
I am unable to figure out the reason. Please let me know, if you have any
information in this regard.
Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Salman

Not from the public API, unfortunately.

The "id" field is part of the BT_STREAM_EVENT_HEADER scope, while the
"stream_id" field is part of the BT_TRACE_PACKET_HEADER scope.
The code below is adapted from converter/babeltrace.c's
convert_trace() loop to print both values.
while ((ctf_event = bt_ctf_iter_read_event(iter))) {
const struct bt_definition *stream_event_header_scope =
bt_ctf_get_top_level_scope(
ctf_event, BT_STREAM_EVENT_HEADER);
const struct bt_definition *id_field =
bt_ctf_get_field(
ctf_event, stream_event_header_scope, "id");
printf("id = %" PRIu64 "\n", bt_ctf_get_uint64(id_field));
const struct bt_definition *packet_header_scope =
bt_ctf_get_top_level_scope(
ctf_event, BT_TRACE_PACKET_HEADER);
const struct bt_definition *stream_id_field =
bt_ctf_get_field(
ctf_event, packet_header_scope, "stream_id");
printf("stream_id = %" PRIu64 "\n", bt_ctf_get_uint64(
stream_id_field)); [...] }
