= About =
-Wrapper DLLs to trace D3D8 and D3D9 APIs calls.
-
-Based on the idea from Michael Koch.

+Wrapper DLLs to trace OpenGL, D3D8, and D3D9 APIs calls.
= Status =
-* Only Direct3D 8 and 9 are supported at the moment.
+* Direct3D 8 and 9 are broken at the moment.
* It has not been tested with many applications. Bugs may cause the application to crash.
= Building from source =
+Common requirements:
+* Python (tested with version 2.6)
+* CMake (tested with version 2.8)
+
+== Linux ==
+
+Build as:
+
+ cmake -H. -Bbuild
+ make -C build
+
+== Windows ==
+
Requirements:
-* Python (tested with version 2.5)
-* SCons (tested with 0.98.4)
-* Microsoft Visual Studio (tested with 2005 version)
+* Microsoft Visual Studio (tested with 2008 version) or MinGW (tested with gcc version 4.4)
* Microsoft DirectX SDK (tested with August 2007 release)
-Instructions:
+To build with Visual Studio invoke CMake as:
-* Invoke scons:
-
- scons debug=no dxsdk=C:\DXSDK
+ cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" -H%CD% -B%CD%\build
+ cmake --build %CD%\build --config MinSizeRel
-* You can write those options to a file named config.py:
+It's also possible to build on Linux with MinGW cross compilers. See
+http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CmakeMingw for detailed instructions.
- # config.py
- debug=1
- dxsdk='C:\\DXSDK'
-
-* Invoke
- scons -h
+= Usage =
+
+== Linux ==
-See the scons manpage for more info.
+* Run the application you want to trace as
+ LD_PRELOAD=path/to/glxtrace.so path/to/application
-= Usage =
+* View the trace with
+
+ path/to/dump application.trace
-* Copy d3d8.dll/d3d9.dll, d3dtrace.xsl, d3dtrace.css to the directory with the application you want to trace.
+* Replay the trace with
+
+ path/to/glretrace application.trace
+
+
+== Windows ==
+
+* Copy opengl32.dll, d3d8.dll, or d3d9.dll to the directory with the application you want to trace.
* Run the application.
-* Open the output XML file with Firefox or Internet Explorer to view the log.
-* For long XML files is better to use the d3dtrace-txt.xsl stylesheet together with a dedicated XSL processor like xsltproc, or msxsl.
+* View the trace with
+
+ path/to/dump application.trace
+
+* Replay the trace with
+
+ path/to/glretrace application.trace
