Your Readme.txt file says: This program converts MDF4 files into TeSSLatraces. I tried searching about TeSSLatraces, there are no relavant results. What kind of format is TeSSLatraces?

HendrikStreichhahn commented 3 years ago

TeSSLa stands for temporal stream-based specification language. One of TeSSLas main purpose is monitoring the time behavior of cyber-physical systems. You can learn more about it at www.tessla.io.

TeSSLa traces are one way to get the streams into TeSSLa. The trace files are storing the events (or measurement values, etc.) combined with an associated timestamp. The trace file have a pretty simple and human readable format:

timestamp : stream name = value

591: stream1 = 5 602: stream1 = 9

See https://github.com/HendrikStreichhahn/TeSSLa-Autosar-Timing-Extensions/tree/master/test/traces for more example traces.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Best regards Hendrik Streichhahn

Thanks @HendrikStreichhahn for the explaination.

Also in the same readme file it is given that MDF4Reader.dll is required for the project. That means the project is built only for Windows platform. Are you planing to built the same for Ubuntu platform?

HendrikStreichhahn commented 3 years ago

The converter uses the free Turbolab DLL for reading the MDF4-Files and outputs the data in the TeSSLa trace format.

A Linux port of the converter would be possible, if there is a suitable replacement for the reading part of the DLL. But unfortunately, i didn't find one yet.
