NAME
kprof - a KDE3 visual tool to help analyze profiling results
SYNOPSIS
kprof [ generic-options ] [ -f file ] [ -p profiler ]
DESCRIPTION
KProf is a visual tool for developers that displays the execution profiling output generated by code profiling tools. The output of gprof being usually difficult to read (beyond the flat profile information), KProf presents the information in list- or tree-views that make the execution profiling information very easy to understand.
Currently supported profilers include GNU gprof, Function Check and Palm OS Emulator with profile option.
OPTIONS
Below are the kprof-specific options. For a full summary of options, run kprof --help.
- -f file
- Open the given profiling output file.
- -p profiler
- Specifies which profiler was used to create the profiling output file. The profiler argument must be one of gprof (GNU gprof), fnccheck (Function Check) or pose (Palm OS Emulator).
