Dear Sir,
I'm replying...
Ah, I see. When TAU is configured with -TRACE it generates trace
files, but no profile files. If you select a makefile with out the
-trace option you should get profile output. You could also try
setting the environment variable TAU_PROFILE to '1' in your eclipse
launch environment. Please let me know if this works.
That is correct! At first I set TAU_PROFILE to 1 in Environment tab with no effect. Then I produced an extra makefile without any trace options and it worked!
Now I can call the paraprof both from both command line and via Eclipse environment. This tool is awesome.
I don't know if this is relevant but I have to mention it because it might help others: I also updated my apache derby installation because I got connection error messages. Now it works fine.
The trace output being produced is not handled by tau-eclipse by
default.
If you navigate to the directory containing this data,
though, you can run
tau_treemerge.pl
This will merge all of the trace files. Then run
tau2slog2 tau.trc tau.edf -o tau.slog2
This will create a tau.slog2 file which you can view in the jumpshot
trace viewer by running
jumpshot tau.slog2
This is also very useful!
I have to thank you very much for your time and support.
Best Regards,
Constantinos
