rename gmon.out

[Robert_M_]

Hi folks,

it seems like the ICC does not use the environment variable GMON_OUT_PREFIX. Is tehre another way to change the filename of the gmon.out file?!

thank you.

Hello Robert,

Looks like it works for me, which version of compiler you are using? did you build with "-p" option (or -pg)?

$ icc -v
icc version 14.0.2 (gcc version 4.8.0 compatibility)
$ icc foo.c -p
$ export GMON_OUT_PREFIX=gprof.out
$ ./a.out
$ ls gprof.out*
gprof.out.86655
$ ./a.out
$ ls gprof.out*
gprof.out.86655  gprof.out.86657
$ export GMON_OUT_PREFIX=test.out
$ ./a.out
$ ls gprof.out* test.out*
gprof.out.86655  gprof.out.86657  test.out.86667
$

Thanks,

Shenghong

Oh, this was my fault. I misunderstood this Variable being evaluated at compile time, not at runtime.

It works for me as well, thank you.
