GUI to view callgraph for vtune 2.0

[Anonymous85]

Dear all,

I have seen mentioned in old threads some sort of a GUI to view vtune output, especially call graph data. I would really appreciate if someone could point me in it's direction. (As an aside, vtune providesplenty ofgood information but I findit's output formatnearly unusable).

Any help with GUI or advice on re-formatting callgraph output would be appreciated!

Hey mrxonix,

Great question, glad you spoke up!

1) the callgraph plug in viewer comes with the vtl 2.0 software (CD or download), but it has a separate install program, if memory serves, called "install.sh"

2) It takes about 2 minutes to install, but vtl 2.0 has to be installed first

3) after you install, you just add a -gui to the view command for callgraph results:

old way: $ vtl view

for GUI: $ vtl view -gui

Report back here if you can't find that tar ball and install.sh file you need.

ONE MORE THING:

the beta software for vtl 3.0 has a full-featured GUI with wizards, in addition to the above callgraph viewer (and a sampling viewer). If you like GUIs, you should kick the tires on this beta software asap. Register to download it (it's fast and free) at:

Thanks for the link. At this time I don't have "admin rights" to try it out on a given server but I will try to see if there is another location where I could do it.
