NAME

     extractvectors — Vector Extraction Tool for OMNeT++ Vector Files

SYNOPSIS

     extractvectors [Input File] [Output File] [Vector Name Prefix] [...] -quiet

DESCRIPTION

     extractvectors is an extraction tool for vectors written by OMNeT++ to a data table.
     ExtractVectors supports on-the-fly BZip2 decompression and compression.

ARGUMENTS

     The following arguments may be provided:

     Input File
             The name of the input vector file.

     Output File
             The name of the output data table to be created.

     Vector Name Prefix
             Name prefix of vectors to be extracted. Multiple vector name prefixes may be
             specified. If no name prefix is given, all vectors will be extracted.

     -quiet  Do not print verbose status information.

EXAMPLE

     Consider an OMNeT++ vector file containing the vectors "Slow Start Threshold <assoc>:<path>"
     and "Congestion Window <assoc>:<path>", contained with a lot of other vectors in the
     BZip2-compressed vector file results.vec.bz2.  ExtractVectors can be used to extract all
     vectors beginning with "Slow Start Threshold" or "Congestion Window" into a BZip2-compressed
     data table results.data.bz2 by the following command:
     extractvectors results.vec.bz2 results.data.bz2 \
        "Slow Start Threshold" \
        "Congestion Window"
     For each vector entry, an output line containing time (Time), event number (Event), object
     name (Object), vector name (Vector) and the vector value (Value) will be created.
     Example:
     Time     Event               Object Vector                          Value
     0.003672   174 "net.client[0].sctp" "Slow Start Threshold 2:Total"  10000000
     0.003672   174 "net.client[0].sctp" "Slow Start Threshold 2:Total"  10000000
     0.003672   174 "net.client[0].sctp" "Congestion Window 2:Total"     4380
     0.003672   174 "net.client[0].sctp" "Congestion Window 2:Total"     8760
     0.003913   238 "net.server[0].sctp" "Slow Start Threshold 4:Total"  10000000
     0.003913   238 "net.server[0].sctp" "Slow Start Threshold 4:Total"  10000000
     0.003913   238 "net.server[0].sctp" "Congestion Window 4:Total"     3000
     0.003913   238 "net.server[0].sctp" "Congestion Window 4:Total"     6000
