Hi Bryan, On Monday 28 August 2006 13:09, Bryan Meredith wrote: > What versions of what compilers are we all using for x86 and x86-64? I would say this very much depends on the user ;-) Of course I most often use the GCC which was installed with my distribution (GCC 4.1 on OpenSuse 10.1), but I also have the Intel compiler installed. This way, the binary is produced by ICC and the library code by GCC. But of course, when I want to use a given Valgrind tool, and there is a suggestion for the best compiler/options to use, I can arrange it when I want the tool to work perfectly. > Would it be acceptable to determine the compiler version at compile time > and insert/remove code sections based upon it? Why can't you detect the instrumentation you need at runtime? I would say that especially with valgrind, instrumentation can be much more dynamic depending on the environment than with any other instrumentation method. Josef |
