Nios II IDE Help System

Editor View (Profiling Perspective)

This view automatically displays as part of the Profiling perspective.

When you open the gmon.out file with the Nios II IDE, the IDE automatically calls gprof and

displays the standard gprof text output. This Editor view is for viewing only.

Note: Saving the file with the default gmon.out filename overwrites the original

gmon.out data. If you save the output as a text file, be sure to rename the saved file.

You can change the gprof command line arguments and rerun the nios2-elf-gprof utility. To

do so, right-click anywhere in the Editor view and click Change gprof arguments. Type

comma separated values, such as --help, in the command line box.
