The selected type of visual studio project is not supported by vTune Profiler

[CarlVerret]

Hi,

Trying to use vTune with a simple .net 5 core c# solution.  Always having this error message without any clue how to workaround :

Something else.  Using stand alone vtune, I can get hotspot analysis results but It always complains that my pdb are not a valid NET core symbol file.  No matter witch pdf generation option I choose. Here's the section config of the .csporj

<PropertyGroup Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='Release|AnyCPU'">
<AllowUnsafeBlocks>true</AllowUnsafeBlocks>
<PlatformTarget>x64</PlatformTarget>
<DebugType>pdbonly</DebugType>
<DebugSymbols>true</DebugSymbols>
</PropertyGroup>

Thanks

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Intel Forum.

Could you please share the following details so that we can reproduce the issue from our end and give appropriate solution :

1. VTune profiler version
2. Application and steps to reproduce

Thanks in advance,

of course!

Steps are quite simple :

I do start a new project : .net core console App in c#

build and then click on Configure Analysis with ITune button

Hi,

We could reproduce the error when we tried it from our end. We checked with the experts regarding this. They informed that currently .NET5 profiling in VTune is not supported.

it does the same error no matter which framework I use.

did you say you have reproduced or you can't ?

[RaeesaM_Intel]

Hi,

We were able to reproduce the issue with .NET profiling in VTune. Can you tell us the other frameworks in which you tried profiling and got the same error.

[CarlVerret]

Yes.  I had same problem with net core 2.0 and .net core 3.1

Hi,

There’s an issue with VTune integration into VS for .NET core projects. The team is working on it.

Hi,

We are forwarding this case to the engineering team.

Thank you.

Hi,

Currently .Net Core projects in VS VTune extension is not supported. As a workaround, you need to profile the application in Standalone VTune or VTune Server.

[Vinutha_SV]

Can you please confirm if the workaround helped? I have provided tis feedback/Feature request to engineering team.

[CarlVerret]

Sorry but from my point of view, not using something is not a workaround.  And vTune integration does not work for any project type in visual studio.  Not only for .net core.

[Vinutha_SV]

Hi,

Can you please let me know what all types of projects did not work with VS?

As mentioned earlier, .net core is not supported and we are working on this feature. until this is enabled, please use standalone VTune.

[CarlVerret]

Seems to me that last time I've tried the tutorials I had same problem with other framework version like .net 4.7.x.

Maybe this is my bad.  Sorry. Thanks for your support.

I hope your issue has been addressed. We will stop monitoring this thread. Thank you.
