As documented in UsingPOSE.pdf, page 54:

     NOTE: It is a good idea to set your compiler's switch to embed
     debug symbols in your code so that you can easily interpret the
     profiling results.

As documented in UsingPOSE.pdf, page 54:

     You do not have to prepare your code in any special way for Palm
     OS Emulator to profile it, because the Emulator can determine when
     functions are entered and exited on its own.

It works like a champ on all platforms.  However, the binary output file can be
viewed only on the Mac (as documented in UsingPOSE.pdf, page 54).  On other
platforms, most people view the text file output in a spreadsheet or database
program.

Subject:  Profiling on Windows CodeWarrior



Has anyone done any profiling on the Windows CodeWarrior Release 6 with
PalmOS 3.5 on the emulator?

I've only been able to run the emulator_profile.exe program to generate a
text file of numbers.  But I can't tie any of the numbers to any of the
function names.

When I try to profile by clicking on the button Generate profiler
Information in the 68K processor settings under Code Generation, it compiles
fine, but generates a ton of link errors saying that it can't find
__PROFILE_ENTRY__, __PROFILE_EXIT__.  Am I missing something?  Do I have to
add any additional source code to get it to link properly?

Can you only profile on the MAC?

Thanks for any info!
