8 babeltrace2-sink.utils.dummy - Babeltrace 2's dummy sink component class
13 A Babeltrace~2 compcls:sink.utils.dummy component consumes messages
14 and discards them (does absolutely nothing with them).

26 A compcls:sink.utils.dummy sink component can be useful to run a trace
27 processing graph with no sink side effect, for example to perform
28 benchmarks. Prefer a compcls:sink.utils.dummy component class for such
29 tasks to, for example, a compcls:sink.text.pretty component and sending
30 its output to `/dev/null`, as a compcls:sink.text.pretty component still
31 performs formatting operations.
