8 <h2>Activating traces</h2> |
|
9 <h5>Before you start</h5> |
|
10 <p>Trace activation is a way of generating specific trace data that |
|
11 is relevant for your components. This reduces the amount of traces listed |
|
12 on the TraceViewer user interface. For more information, see <a href="../concepts/decode_file.htm"> |
|
13 Dictionary file and trace activation</a>.</p> |
|
14 <p>Before you can activate trace components and groups, open the Dictionary file |
|
15 (.xml) that contains the necessary component and group information. |
|
16 See <a href="decoding_traces.htm">Decoding binary traces with a Dictionary file</a>.</p> |
|
17 <p>To activate traces: </p> |
|
18 <ol> |
|
19 <li>From the TraceViewer menu, select <b>Trace Activation</b>. <p> |
|
20 The <b>Trace activation</b> dialog is displayed, showing the components and |
|
21 groups loaded from the Dictionary file. </p></li> |
|
22 <li><a name="act_conf"></a>(Optional) Activation configurations can be saved |
|
23 and loaded from an XML file. |
|
24 To load a saved activation configuration file: |
|

|
31 a configuration after making changes to it, click <b>Save Current...</b>. |
|
32 Then select a file, type the configuration name and click <b>OK</b>. One file |
|
33 can contain several configurations. </p></li> |

|
41 asterisk for a wildcard), right-click and select <b>Activate</b>.</li> |
|

|
