Working With Domains Chapter 12, Getting Started with Xgig TraceView
Xgig Analyzer User’s Guide 225
The file name that is appended with .tgd is the Trace Group Directory which means a sub-directory
named
8G_FC.tgd has been added to the E:/Dons Trace Files directory. All of the trace files
(including
8G_FC.tgp
) will be added to this new sub-directory. The following restrictions are
imposed when saving a trace file:
• No other directory with a ".tgd" extension is allowed in the selected path.
• Once a trace file has been saved in a directory, no other trace file with the same name can be
saved into that directory. If a the same name exists, an error message is displayed asking you
to select a different path or a different name.
The
Save Trace
dialog box also has several options.
You may choose to save ports/data in one of three ways.
•
Save All Ports
– When you select this option, you save all port data.
• Save Selected Ports – Select ports or links from the tree shown in the dialog.
•
Save Only Visible Events in Main View
– When this option is applied, it will save the filtered
events visible on main view. Using the Truncate Frames check box, you can also specify to
truncate the frames while saving.
If the Save Viewer Configuration check box is selected, the current configuration information
(column displayed, colors, applied filters, etc.) is saved with the new trace data file. If you do not
select this check box, the last used configuration information is applied to the trace file when it is
opened in Xgig TraceView.
The Time Extent selections set the limits of the trace data to save using the Start: and End: fields.
The timestamp values to use as the beginning and end points of the save operation are available
from each pull-down menu. Two defaults are provided:
Start of Trace and End of Trace .
You can set the limits of the trace data to save by clicking on events in the spreadsheet. Click an
event and its timestamp is entered in the
Start: field. Click the End: field and then on another
event in the trace. Its timestamp is entered in the
End:
field.
Other timestamps are made available in the pull-down menu by adding bookmarks. Select a
timestamp in the trace, right-click the bookmarks column, and select
Bookmark Editor…
to create
a bookmark. Once the bookmark is created, the bookmark name appears in the pull-down menus
for the
Start:
and
End:
fields.
Select the Start Save button to start saving the trace files to the new Trace files sub-directory.
When you start the save, the screen portion shown in Figure 98 is appended to the bottom of the
Save Trace dialog box. This allows you to monitor the progress of the save to completion.
