Hi Andy,
You can use the -comp option of codecov to include or exclude files or directories in covergae analysis. For example, if you put the following line in a text file, comp.txt:
/dev/src
and run "codecov -comp comp.txt", then only files who have a substring in their full path name that matches "/dev/src" will be included in coverage analysis. Of course, all files under /dev/src will be included. That's all you need. Now, if you want to exclude certain file or directory (e.g., file xyz.c in dir1) from this list, you add the following lines in the component file, comp.txt:
/dev/src/
~/dev/src/dir1/xyz.c
The exclude option is supported only in the latest version of the tool.
This option allows users to breakdown the coverage into several components, where each component is owned by a different organization and thus responsible for its coverage. You just need to have the total coverage file pgopti.spi, pgopti.dpi and the component files thatdescribe the components, as described above. Note that files or directories may be shared between components.
The white paper on Intel compiler code-coverage tool describes several options of the tool:
Please let us know if you need any more information.
