I have just downloaded the trial of vTune Amplifier XE 2013 r.16 and have tried to do a basic hotspot analysis from with VS 2012. Unfortunately all I get is the error: "The data cannot be displayed: there is no viewpoint applicable for the data". I have attached the output below. I think I have the project options setup correctly. What do I need to get it working?
Thanks

Just to add a little more information to this. There are no files in the project directory at all. (c:\MyDocs\Progs\MandGen\My Amplifier XE Results - newMand\r012hs).

Hi Allan:
Two things: 1) how long does your application execute? And, 2) please build and use the sample application, tachyon, that comes with the product. If it works for the sample, then we know it has to do with your app. If it doesn't work with the sample, then there could be a system configuration issue.

Hi MrAnderson,
Thanks for taking the time to reply. I just tried the Tachyon sample project and, unfortunately, it doesn't work either. I just get the same error when trying to analyse hotspots.
My PC setup is as follows:
Windows 8.1 x64
Visual Studio Pro 2012
I have the following plugins also installed: P4VS, VA X, Productivity Power Tools.
Cheers
Allan

I do not think if it is related to your problem, but can you disable AV software during the VTune profiling?

IIRC It should be more than single clock interrupt period ~1-3 ms.

I dont have any AV software installed on this machine (as far as I know at least)

I forgot to comment on this. The application runs for a long time, it is based on user input so can run indefinitely if needed. When trying to profile, it doesn't load the application at all though.

@Allan
Did you try to run under VTune Tachyon example?

@Peter
Is that possible to ask VTune developers about what is causing this error:The data cannot be displayed: there is no viewpoint applicable for the data.

@ilyapolak, this is a generic error which simply means there is no data. There is nothing that can be determined from just the error message.
It is very strange, though, since Allan says he is using the Basic Hotspots, which is a software collector.
@Allan, you say it does NOT launch the app? Ah, Windows* 8.1. Are you running in desktop (legacy) mode or the new mode? There are restrictions on how you can profile on Windows 8.1 Please see the release notes and documentation.
See this note from the Release Notes:
1. VTune Amplifier XE supports Basic Hotspots analysis and hardware event-based sampling analysis of Windows Store C# and JavaScript applications on Microsoft Windows 8* via the Attach to Process or Profile System modes. Launch Application mode is not supported. Concurrency and Locks and Waits analysis types are not supported.

I am running in legacy desktop mode. I tried attaching to process and I get a little further but I hit the following exception in both Tachyon and my own application:
Unhandled exception at 0x00000000C5026A20 (tpsstool.dll) in newMand.exe: 0xC0000005:

I tried running vTune on my laptop with Windows 7 and it all worked well however I really would like it working on my desktop PC.
Thanks
