profiling for Coldfire

[king]

I tried to do profiling in CodeWarrior for a Coldfire platform, with simulator only. What I did is, added files timer.c, timer_simulator.c, Profiler.h, ProfilerTimer.h, ProfilerLibrary_4i_CF_Runtime.a to the project, and added the following lines to a C file:

   #include "Profiler.h"

   ProfilerInit(collectDetailed, bestTimeBase,3,3);
   ProfilerClear();
   ProfilerSetStatus(1);

   Function();

   ProfilerSetStatus(0);
   ProfilerDump("profiledump");
   ProfilerTerm();

The profile output profiledump is empty. What did I miss?

Thanks.

Hello

I assume you are using CodeWarrior for Coldfire V6.2. Am I right?

There is an example of profiler project in

     {Install}\(CodeWarrior_Examples)\SimpleProfiler

Just open the project SimpleProfiler.mcp and select the Build target "Profiler (5272 - Simulator)". This should be working.

Check in your project what you did do differently.

Make sure to check the box "Generate Code for Profiling" in the "Coldfire Processor" configuration Panel.

I hope this helps.
