5.8.2 Profile Information Files
To create a profile information file, choose the [Output Profile Information Files…] menu option
from the pop-up menu of the [Profile] window and specify the file name, after measuring a profile
data of the application program.
This file contains information on the number of times functions are called and global variables are
accessed. The optimizing linker (ver. 7.0 or later) is capable of reading the profile information file
and optimizing the allocation of functions and variables in correspondence with the status of the
actual operation of the program.
To input the profiler information file to the linker, choose [Optimize] from the [Category] list box
and check the [Include profile] box in the [Link/Library] sheet of the [Standard Toolchain] dialog
box, and specify the name of the profile information file.
Figure 5.41 [Standard Toolchain] Dialog Box (2)
To enable the settings in the [Include profile] box, specify the [Optimize] list box as some setting
other than [None].
