HP Caliper User's Guide

The output of this option comes from two text files in the HP Caliper directory. See
“Specifying Which CPU Events to Measure” (p. 123).
-d or --details
-d all|[name][:title][:category][:description]
Specifies which information fields to include in CPU counter reports. This can be any
combination of name, title, category, or description separated by colons or
all. The default value is name:title.
-o or --output-file
-o outfile[,append|create]
Specifies the file in which to write the output of the caliper info command.
Default value is stdout.
Open the file in one of two modes:
append
Adds the report results to the end of an existing file that has the specified
name.
create
Creates a file with the specified name and writes the report results to the
file. Replaces any existing file with the specified name.
This is the default.
-r or --report
-r all | report_type
Specifies that descriptions of reports that match the given report_type name be
output.
Report type can be any HP Caliper measurement. You can specify a partial name.
Use all to get a report on all report descriptions.
The output of this option is the same information that is included in measurement
reports when you use the --info option with the caliper command.
The -r and -c options are mutually exclusive. If neither is given, then -c is assumed.
-s or --search
-s all|[category][:name][:title][:description]
Specifies information fields to be searched. It can be any combination of category,
name, title, or description separated by colons or all. The default value is name.
