[developers] Structured output from ACE

Thu Jun 23 22:32:23 CEST 2016

Hi Mike (and any other developers who are interested),

I’ve just checked into SVN a change allowing ACE to optionally write structured output to the console output stream.  The output is formatted as (a list of) s-expressions, and is identical to the data sent to [incr tsdb()] when driven by that tool.  I could imagine at some point having this configurable across s-expressions, xml, and json, but that would take a some additional work.  Can you take a look and see if this will allow you to do what you wanted to do?  You can get labeled trees and derivations at the same time.  Since there is more data being formatted, there is some overhead relative to the basic ACE output format, but it’s not all that much.  I can’t quite recall if you are set up to compile ACE from source; if you need a binary let me know.  Below are examples.

Regards,
--Woodley
