Python package to provide tracing information to LPC.
This package provides the following types:
profile_result
This package contains the following efuns:
profile_result profile_call(mixed& result, closure fun, mixed arg, ...)
The efun package can be downloaded from the python package index:
pip3 install --user ldmud-tracing
You can build the package yourself.
First clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/ldmud/python-tracing.git
Install the package
cd python-tracing
python3 setup.py install --user
Also install the LDMud Python efuns and use its startup.py as the Python startup script for LDMud. It will automatically detect the installed Python efuns and load them.
Add the following lines to your startup script:
import ldmud_tracing.profile
ldmud_tracing.profile.register()
The profile_call
efun evaluates the given closure, any extra arguments will
be passed to the closure. The result will be assigned to the first argument
which needs to be passed as a reference.
The efun will return a profile_result
object. This object provides evaluation
cost and elapsed time information for each executed LPC code line. A complete
list of functions is available in the efun documentation.
Have fun!
