tf::ChromeObserver class
#include <src/taskflow/core/observer.hpp>

observer interface based on Chrome tracing format

Reference

A tf::ChromeObserver inherits tf::ObserverInterface and defines methods to dump the observed thread activities into a format that can be visualized through .

tf::Taskflow taskflow;
tf::Executor executor;

// insert tasks into taskflow
// ...
  
// create a custom observer
std::shared_ptr<tf::ChromeObserver> observer = executor.make_observer<tf::ChromeObserver>();

// run the taskflow
executor.run(taskflow).wait();

// dump the thread activities to a chrome-tracing format.
observer->dump(std::cout);

Base classes

class ObserverInterface: The interface class for creating an executor observer.

Public functions

void dump(std::ostream& ostream) const: dumps the timelines into a format through an output stream
auto dump() const -> std::string: dumps the timelines into a format
void clear(): clears the timeline data
auto num_tasks() const -> size_t: queries the number of tasks observed

Private functions

void set_up(size_t num_workers) final: constructor-like method to call when the executor observer is fully created
void on_entry(WorkerView w, TaskView task_view) final: method to call before a worker thread executes a closure
void on_exit(WorkerView w, TaskView task_view) final: method to call after a worker thread executed a closure

Function documentation

void tf::ChromeObserver::set_up(size_t num_workers) final private

constructor-like method to call when the executor observer is fully created

Parameters
num_workers	the number of the worker threads in the executor

void tf::ChromeObserver::on_entry(WorkerView w, TaskView task_view) final private

method to call before a worker thread executes a closure

Parameters
w	an immutable view of this worker thread
task_view	a constant wrapper object to the task

void tf::ChromeObserver::on_exit(WorkerView w, TaskView task_view) final private

method to call after a worker thread executed a closure

Parameters
w	an immutable view of this worker thread
task_view	a constant wrapper object to the task
