About apitrace

apitrace consists of a set of tools to:

• trace OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Direct3D, and DirectDraw APIs calls to a file;

• replay OpenGL and OpenGL ES calls from a file;

• inspect OpenGL state at any call while retracing;

• visualize and edit trace files.

See the apitrace homepage for more details.

Status

TL;DR: Apitrace is still being maintained, but the maintainer has very little time to work on it, so patches/issues/requests are addressed if/as time permits.
