Hi all, I have a problem using vgprof skin for performance profiling. To be exact, I can't use it at all :) I downloaded vgpfor binary from Jeremy's website, and tried to follw the instructions: "The basic form is: valgrind --skin=vgprof program" Invocation of Valgrind with this skin yields "The shared library vgskin_vgprof.so for the chosen skin cannot be found". And of course it can't ... because I don't have it. What am I missing here? Any hints from people who did run vgprof successfully? Thanks!

It's confusing: the name of the skin is "vgprof", the name of the patched version of gprof that works with vgprof's output is "VGProf". You would have downloaded VGProf, but not the patch for vgprof, if that makes sense. I just updated valgrind.kde.org/related.html, which might make it a little clearer. N |
