I am looking for profiler to run on a SVR2 platform. We currently are using "gprof" on our systems as well as "prof". We would like something that will profile at a lower level, like monitor(3C), but automatically with a compiler option. Does such an animal exist? Susan ...rochester!cci632!susan

There is such a beast for SystemV Release 2 (and later) for the ATT 3B product line. It is called lprof for line profiler. It produces an annotated listing of the C source with a count, line by line, of the number of times each statement was executed. It uses a special routine to insert code into the executable and is invoked as a compile time option (-qc) to the C compiler. The lprof is part of the C Programmers Productivity Tools offered by ATT. See your account rep. For SVR2 people who don't have an ATT platform consult your vendor they might have the product or plan to offer it. -- =Dennis L.
