The HP Fortran compiler environment includes a high-level language debugger and
performance analysis tools. The debugger is HP WDB, which includes a graphical user
interface. To prepare a program for debugging, you must compile it with the -g option. For
information about this option, see “Using the HP WDB debugger” on page 117.
The performance analysis tools include the standard UNIX utilities, prof and gprof. To use
prof and gprof, you must compile with the +prof and +gprof options, respectively. For more
information about all of the performance analysis tools, see “Using profilers” on page 139 and
the CXperf (1), prof (1), gprof (1), and ttv (1) man pages.
