PCSC-SPY(1)	      User Contributed Perl Documentation	   PCSC-SPY(1)

NAME
       pcsc-spy	- A PC/SC spy command

SYNOPSIS
       pcsc-spy	[-n|--nocolor] [-d|--diffable] [-h|--help] [-v|--version]
       [-t|--thread] [fifo_filename]

DESCRIPTION
       pcsc-spy	displays PC/SC calls of	an application.	It must	be used	with
       the libpcscspy.so.0 library.

       To be able to spy the PC/SC layer, the application flow must be
       modified	using "LIBPCSCLITE_DELEGATE" so	that all PC/SC calls are
       redirected.

OPTIONS
       -d, --diffable
	   Remove  the variable	parts (like handler values) from the output so
	   that	two execution can be more easily compared.

       -h, --help
	   Display a short help	text.

       -n, --nocolor
	   Disable the output colorization (if you want	redirect the output in
	   a file for example).

       -v, --version
	   Print the version of	the pcsc-spy program plus a copyright, a  list
	   of authors.

       -t, --thread
	   Add	a  thread number before	each line of log to identify the calls
	   from	the same threads.

EXAMPLES
       We will use the "LIBPCSCLITE_DELEGATE" environment variable to load our
       spying library.

       Example:

	sh /usr/share/doc/libpcsclite-dev/setup_spy.sh
	export LIBPCSCLITE_DELEGATE=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcscspy.so.0

	LIBPCSCLITE_DELEGATE=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcscspy.so.0 my_application

   Starting the	spy tool
	pcsc-spy

       If a command argument is	passed	we  use	 it  instead  of  the  default
       ~/pcsc-spy  FIFO	 file.	It is then possible to record an execution log
       and use pcsc-spy	multiple times on the same log.

       To create the log file just do:

	mkfifo ~/pcsc-spy
	cat ~/pcsc-spy > logfile

       and run your PC/SC application.

FILES
       ~/pcsc-spy FIFO file is used by libpcscspy.so.0 to  send	 the  raw  log
       lines
