Actually, I believe gcov supports shared libraries, and I can genereate .gcda and .gcon files for the library source.
I can use the following command line to "see" the coverage data, file by file. However, I'm looking for a easier way, (with GUI) to help me navigate through. gcov -f Jmf.cpp -o . | c++filt > junk vi junk What it does in the command line is compare the cpp source with with the generated data file (.gcno). I'm a bit confused why in Eclipse plug in it's looking for gcno file and the executable file? Any answer would be appreciated.

Hi, AFAIK, gcov does not support shared libraries (see for example http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3709699/can-gcov-deal-with-shared-obj ect/) Best regards, Xavier From: linuxtools-dev-boun...@eclipse.org [mailto:linuxtools-dev-boun...@eclipse.org] On Behalf Of George Liu Sent: mercredi 22 septembre 2010 23:14 To: linuxtools-dev@eclipse.org Subject: [linuxtools-dev] gcov for library coverage? I'm developing a C++ library, and it's tested by a cppunit test program. I wanted to use gcov to check for the library's code coverage, but is it currently supported? I added the -fprofile-arcs and -ftest-coverage flags to both the library and the test program. What I can see is a beautiful chart showing me the test program's coverage. But how do I see the coverage for my library code? When I select a .gcno file, and prompted for the binary file name, selecting the library binary file will give me an error An error has occurred when parsing the coverage data files : Checksums don't correspond for _XXXXXX Any clues? Thanks George
