How to build

The DeltaQ oscilloscope is a C++ graphical interface to observe running Erlang programs, giving real time insights about the instrumented Erlang system under test. The oscilloscope needs to be paired with the dqsd_otel Erlang wrapper, which can be found here.

The wrapper sends data about the execution of the Erlang system and the oscilloscope will perform real time statistical computations to give detailed insights about the running problem.

This project is part of a master thesis.

Dependencies

To build this project you need a few dependencies

• ANTLR4
• Qt6

They need to be installed before compiling the project. The rest of the dependencies will be added by CPM when building

Install Antlr4

git clone https://github.com/antlr/antlr4.git
cd antlr4/runtime/Cpp
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF
make -j
sudo make install

Install Qt6

Build

To build you need to run the following commands from source

    make setup
    make build

After building, the oscilloscope will be put inside build/bin/ and can be run by

    ./DQOscilloscope
    ./build/bin/DQOscilloscope # if at root 

Tests

After building, you can run tests with

    make test
