#Formatters

The second feature of the Traceability Library are the Formatters for extracting the trace data from the Tracer and formatting it as needed.

Once a Tracer has extracted data from the system, and placed it in TraceNodes, the formatters are used to parse the the data and transform it into a useful format. The NodeFormatter defaults to using the XmlNodeParser which produces well formed XML.

Additional parsers may be created, using the Interfaces as a base. In most cases a TraceNode will have child nodes. The AbstractNodeChildProcessor may be used to help process the child nodes.

• NodeFormatter
• XmlNodeParser
• Interfaces
• ParserMap
• Context
• AbstractNodeChildProcessor
• EmptyNodeParser

Note: Everything in the formatter section is part of the Traceability Library.
