Hi,
I'm trying to generate profiling code that I can look at in gprof using xcode 3 on an intel based macbook (running 10.5). I can't get a gmon.out file for the life of me. Even if i compile directly with gcc from the command line. Any ideas why this won't work? Any ideas how to utilize the traditional -pg option to get profiling code?

Thanks,
Sterling

You might want to look into Instruments (supplied) and CLANG analyzer (a free download).

Sorry, I don't know about gprof. Actually I'm not familiar enough with the above tools, but they are what Cocoa developers seem to be into.
