-  <modulesummary>An Inviso Off-Line Logfile Merger</modulesummary>
-  <description>
-    <p>Implements an off-line logfile merger, merging binary trace-log files from several nodes together in chronological order. The logfile merger can also do pid-to-alias translations.</p>
-    <p>The logfile merger is supposed to be called from the Erlang shell or a higher layer trace tool. For it to work, all logfiles and trace information files (containing the pid-alias associations) must be located in the file system accessible from this node and organized according to the API description.</p>
-    <p>The logfile merger starts a process, the output process, which in its turn starts one reader process for every node it shall merge logfiles from. Note that the reason for a process for each node is not remote communication, the logfile merger is an off-line utility, it is to sort the logfile entries in chronological order.</p>
-    <p>The logfile merger can be customized both when it comes to the implementation of the reader processes and the output the output process shall generate for every logfile entry.</p>

-        <p>Merges the logfiles in <c>Files</c> together into one file in chronological order. The logfile merger consists of an output process and one or several reader processes.</p>
-        <p>Returns <c>{ok, Count}</c> where <c>Count</c> is the total number of log entries processed, if successful.</p>
-        <p>When specifying <c>LogFiles</c>, currently the standard reader-process only supports:</p>
-        <list type="bulleted">
-          <item>one single file</item>
-          <item>a list of wraplog files, following the naming convention <c><![CDATA[<Prefix><Nr><Suffix>]]></c>.</item>
-        </list>
-        <p>Note that (when using the standard reader process) it is possible to give a list of <c>LogFiles</c>. The list must be sorted starting with the oldest. This will cause several trace-logs (from the same node) to be merged together in the same <c>OutFile</c>. The reader process will simply start reading the next file (or wrapset) when the previous is done.</p>
-        <p><c>FileDescription == {reader,RMod,RFunc,FileSet}</c> indicates that <c>spawn(RMod, RFunc, [OutputPid,LogFiles])</c> shall create a reader process.</p>
-        <p>The output process is customized with <c>BeginHFun</c>, <c>WorkHFun</c> and <c>EndHFun</c>. If using <c>merge/2</c> a default output process configuration is used, basically creating a text file and writing the output line by line. <c>BeginHFun</c> is called once before requesting log entries from the reader processes. <c>WorkHFun</c> is called for every log entry (trace message) <c>LogEntry</c>. Here the log entry typically gets written to the output. <c>PidMappings</c> is the translations produced by the reader process. <c>EndHFun</c> is called when all reader processes have terminated.</p>
-        <p>Currently the standard reader can only handle one ti-file (per <c>LogFiles</c>). The current inviso meta tracer is further not capable of wrapping ti-files. (This also because a wrapped ti-log will most likely be worthless since alias associations done in the beginning are erased but still used in the trace-log).</p>
-        <p>The standard reader process is implemented in the module <c>inviso_lfm_tpreader</c> (trace port reader). It understands Erlang linked in trace-port driver generated trace-logs and <c>inviso_rt_meta</c> generated trace information files.</p>

-    <title>Writing Your Own Reader Process</title>
-    <p>Writing a reader process is not that difficult. It must:</p>
-    <list type="bulleted">
-      <item>Export an init-like function accepting two arguments, pid of the output process and the <c>LogFiles</c> component. <c>LogFiles</c> is actually only used by the reader processes, making it possible to redefine <c>LogFiles</c> if implementing an own reader process.</item>
-      <item>Respond to <c>{get_next_entry, OutputPid}</c> messages with <c>{next_entry, self(), PidMappings, NowTimeStamp, Term}</c> or <c>{next_entry, self(), {error,Reason}}</c>.</item>
-      <item>Terminate normally when no more log entries are available.</item>
-      <item>Terminate on an incoming EXIT-signal from <c>OutputPid</c>.</item>
-    </list>
-    <p>The reader process must of course understand the format of a logfile written by the runtime component.</p>
