%% This module provides a (well working) example of how to program an
%% autostart server responsible for initializing trace, setting patterns
%% and flags.
%%
%% The general idea is that this code spawns interpreter processes in order to
%% execute commands concurrently. Each of the interpreter processes opens one or
%% several files (in sequence) containing erlang function calls which are evaluated
%% in the interpreter process context.
%% The argument provided to init shall be a list of options controlling
%% how to initialize tracing, which file(s) to open and variable bindings.
%%
%% This autostart_server interpreters understands standard inviso trace case files.
%%
%% The runtime component provides an API very similar to the API provided
%% by the control component. It is therefore easy to translate inviso calls to
%% inviso_rt calls.
%%
%% This process may be killed by the inviso_rt process if stop_tracing is called.
%% The reason is that there is no time limit to the interpreter processes. Hence
%% they should be killed if tracing is not possible anylonger.
%% =============================================================================


%% -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

%% The independent autostart process spawned by the runtime component to carry
%% out initializations is spawened on this function (if using the example
%% autostart which comes with inviso).
%% ArgsFromConfig is as can be heard from the name comming from a paramater in
%% the autostart configuration file. Here it is supposed to be:
%%   ArgsFromConfig=[ServerParam,...]
%%     ServerParam={tracerdata,TracerData}|{cmdfiles,Files}|{bindings,Bindings}|
%%       {translations,Translations}|{debug,DbgLevel}
%%       TracerData=tracerdata given to inviso_rt:init_tracing/1 function.
%%       Files=[FileNameSpecs,...] where each FileNameSpecs will be executed in
%%         a separate process. Making each FileNameSpec parallel.
%%         FileNameSpecs=[FileNameSpec,...]
%%           FileNameSpec=FileName | {FileName,Bindings}
%%       Bindings=[{Var,Value},...] variable environment understood by
%%         erl_eval:exprs/2.
%%       Translations=[Translation,...]
%%       A translation file is a text-file with following tuples
%%         Translation={{Mod,Func,Arity,{Mod2,Func2,ParamMF}}}|
%%                     {{Func,Arity,{Mod2,Func2,ParamMF}}}
%%           ParamMF={M,F} | any()
%%           Translates Mod:Func/Arity to Mod2:Func2 with the arguments to
%%             Mod:Func translated using M:F/1. Note that ParamMF is not
%%             necessarily an MF. If no translation shall be done, ParamMF
%%             shall be anything else but an MF.
%%           Also note that Mod is optional in a Translation. That means that
%%           function calls without a module in the trace case file will
%%           be translated according to that translation.

%% The interpret process.
%%
%% An interpreter process executes trace case files. Several interpreter processes
%% may be running in parallel. It is not within the scoop of this implementation
%% of an autostart server to solve conflicts. (You may implement your own autostart
%% server!).
%% An interpret process may run for as long as necessary. Hence the function called
%% within the trace case file can contain wait functions, waiting for a certain
%% system state to occure before continuing.
%% Note that this process also mixes global and local bindings. GlobalBindings
%% is a binding() structure, where LocalBindings is a list of {Var,Value}.
%% Further it is possible to let FileName be a {inviso,Func,Args} tuple instead.
