> .exe magic doesn't work with gprof. Any ideas why? And indeed, it doesn't work the other way round... [carrying on from your testcase:] [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware/test> mv foo.exe foo [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware/test> rm gmon.out [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware/test> ./foo [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware/test> gprof foo.exe foo.exe: No such file or directory [EMAIL PROTECTED] /artimi/firmware/test> gprof foo Flat profile: Exe magic is not applied to command line arguments by the shell, otherwise it might mangle plaintext or options: exe magic is applied when an application tries to open a file that doesn't exist. gprof doesn't open foo or foo.exe; it opens gmon.out. The exe magic would have to modify the contents of gmon.out in accord with gprof's internal binary format to make a difference here. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
