Hi Charles,
I can't really comment on what the packages do, but babeltrace2 provides those
headers under "include/babeltrace2-ctf-writer" since that library is somewhat
"grafted" to the project. Which distro are you using?
As for where to "plug" your bindings, that library is there to maintain
compatibility with the ctf-writer library that was provided by Babeltrace 1.x
as it had a number of external users. I don't expect it to keep up with new CTF
versions.
A more "future proof" integration point is to write a source component, and
instanciate it in a graph configured with the CTF filesystem sink, and feed
your events through the graph.
Let me know if you want more information,
Jérémie

Subject: Re: [lttng-dev] LTTng UST structure support
Hi,
So I wrote a draft of Rust lib above ctf-writer, using the apis as demonstrated
in the ctf-writer test
For deployment I wanted to use "libbabeltrace2-ctf-writer.so" in the
"libbabeltrace2-dev" package but I could not locate the matching includes in
there or in the other babeltrace 2 packages
Did I miss them somewhere ? Should I have plugged in at another level in
babeltrace2 ?
Best regards,
Charles

Hi Mathieu,
Thanks for your reply :)
I'll stick to bt2 modules in the meantime then
I'll already be saving a ton of time with those and the CTF spec which is great
!
Best regards,

This is correct. I am currently working on a new project called
"libside" (see https://git.efficios.com/?p=libside.git;a=summary) which
features support for compound types.
However, we still need to do the heavy-lifting implementation work of
integrating this with LTTng-UST. This is the plan towards supporting
compound types in LTTng-UST.

For now the ctf-writer modules of bt2 would be an alternative to
consider, but remember that it is not designed for low-impact tracing
such as lttng-ust. So it depends on how much tracer overhead/runtime
impact you can afford in your use-case.
Thanks,
Mathieu
