Subj: 	profiling an application built under ODE?

Hi,

I'm trying to profile an application that I built under ODE.  When I pix-ify it,
after building it, the pix-ified version core dumps upon execution.  I tried 
turning on the -p flag in the makefile, but when I run the resultant executable,
I don't get a "mon.out" file.  The executable works fine, but doesn't produce
any profiling data.

I tried putting the "-p" in the CFLAGS, which compiles OK, but I get the above
results.  When I put the "-p" in the LDFLAGS, I get the following error:

	cc: Error: -p0 or -p1 must precede any -B flags

Can someone tell me the correct method for profiling an OSF command/utility 
built under ODE?


Thanks very much,

Scott

hi scott,

i tried using CFLAGS=-p on a build.

cd to the obj directory where it created the .o and
image.  in this directory i can run 
	pixie imagename
and it comes back with imagename.Addrs and imagename.pixie

is this close to what you're trying to do?

buildhelp's the more appropriate alias for this...	thanks.

Hi Jo,

>> i tried using CFLAGS=-p on a build.

Did it work for you?

I finally took my files and built the executable in the standard "user"
compilation environment on a Sterling BL5 system and added the -p flag there.
When I run this binary, I get the "mon.out" file as expected.  This work-around
is fine for me.

This is basically what I did.  However, I guess there are some problems with
pixie as my imagename.pixie file simply core dumps upon execution.  I've
used it successfully in the past with other programs, though. (on ULTRIX and
OSF)


Thanks,


Scott
