Purefiler - An alternative profiler

[jassing]

I use it for F5 compile/run.
In the pb_editoroutput.pb file there is:

Code: Select all

;XIncludeFile "\src\purebasic\WinServiceControl.pbi"
;XIncludeFile "\src\purebasic\EmptyWorkingSet.pbi"

;XIncludeFile "GroupCheckIn.pbi"
! pushf
! pushad

and later

Code: Select all

! popf
    EmptyWorkingSet()
! pushf

Perhaps it has something to do with the relative (not a full path) reference?

Code: Select all

---------------------------
PureBasic
---------------------------
Line 3424: Only 'Case', 'Default' or 'EndSelect' are expected after 'Select'.
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

I get the following error code when running Purefiler. The original source is way way too big to post, but it looks like Purefiler inserts lines outside cases in a select statement. Like so:

Code: Select all

		Select Op
! pushf
! pushad
purefiler_AddStartEntry(4, 386, 1, #False)
! popad
! popf
		
! pushf
! pushad
purefiler_AddStopEntry(4, 386, 1, #False)
! popad
! popf
			Case "+" 
! pushf
! pushad
purefiler_AddStopEntry(4, 385, 1, #True)
! popad
! popf
 ProcedureReturn StrF(ValueL + ValueR, 4)
			Case "-" 
! pushf
! pushad

Holy crap! Purefiler just made a 1.5 GB file in its folder. What is it? Trace log file? When I run the exe to see the log it just hangs.

*Edit*

Okay, that trace file was seriously too big. I was able to make a smaller one, about 6.5 Megs but now Purefiler crashes every time I open the file.

I never tested it for use with F5 - I simply dont know how it behaves in this scenario -> have to check ...

Thx for the report - this is something that should not happen and is definitely an issue. Will have a look at ...

Such huge logs are absolutely possible. Purefiler collects a lot of informations per instruction and loops can produce a lot of log-records indeed.

However, there shouldnt be a crash of course - can you please be more specific about the crash you mentioned?

It was a real-time application, so it wasn't so strange after all. I guess I let it run for a moment too long

Hard to say about the crash, I start Purefiler and load the file, the progress bar progresses and once its at 100% Purefiler just crashes.

Fixed!

F5 works! Tried it.
Besides this I found out that it's most likely that your include hasn't been read succesfully. Please try the latest version (just uploaded) which gives more details like the actual name of the file it tried to read. You can search for "!!!" in the pb_editoroutput.pb to find it - please post this lines here then.

[jassing]

...but if the file isn't "read properly" -- how does it run / compile w/o purefiler?


I updated the exe, hit f5 - got the error message, then did :
type pb_compiler | find "!!!"

two lines showed up -- and both are lines I wrote... nothing extra. same exact error.

fwiw: I had a similar problem before, on a completely different system (both physically, logically, code being compiled, PB Version, OS, including bit level)

would you mind sharing the pre-compilation-file with me? you can send it to me via pm or drop me an email.

tried a few scenarios with relative paths - everything works fine here. but imho you shouldnt start a relative path with a "\", though.

Sorry, but i have SuperServ.pb. How i use Purefiler with SuperServ.pb?

Thanks

May I ask what "SuperServ.pb" is?

[jassing]

found another issue: open a new tab in the IDE - past some code, now run it w/o saving it.

Regarding relative or '\' paths - Yea, I changed the paths to be a fullpath and made no difference.
it seems there is some limit w/in purefiler that just stops on large projects... oh well; I remember using it before and liked it, but it's not working here

Take care.
