Hi girish,

Thanks for the info. I got the logic and got the output.

Now tell me one thing. I have a jBASE program which is badly coded. Is it possible to look the ouput of jprof and decide which part is badly coded. If so how?

hi malai,
i had worked on jprof, it is self explanatory in the jbase documentation which was there. it will give one report ... but not found so usefull bcos varying report was given if you make small changes ... let me see if i could recollect ....

in one session
export JBCPROFILE=0 to disable profiling

export JBCPROFILE=1 to enable profiling
run the program
ls-l jprof* - to list all the profiled files

view the profiling report as jprof -v jprof_721022_1

which will give the line nos.

hi malai,

i had spent few days in finding the problem of performance with SEM using jprofile. even though it shows a particular statement taking more CPU time in one case it is not showing the same stmt taking the same time for the second time.i think it depends on network traffic(no of users),may be OS,H/W. more over jprofile is also a utility thier logic will be based on no of reads and selects and loops. inorder to improve the efficency basic stuffs such as avoid unnecessary nested loops, reads, selects...

Hi All,

I am working on jBASE4.1 on AIX5.1.

When I tried to profile a JBC program I encountered the below error.

-->TEST.PROF -JP
-->Warning: Illegal argument -JP seen

What could be the problem? Could anyone please assist me. I never faced this kind of error in jBASE4.0.
