Hai
My primary objective is to understand how kaffe executes the=20
bytecodes.I want to see in action(step-by-step) what happens once the=20
bytecodes from the class files enters into the Kaffe virtual machine.I am=
=20
trying to construct a kind of sequence diagram for the complete execution=
=20
cycle.I downloaded Kprof(a visualization tool) which works on gprof=20
output.But Kaffe has xprof facility(I think so from what I see in the=20
directory structure...I am not sure) which will configure kaffe in such a=
way=20
that gprof can work.From the output constructed by gprof,we can use Kprof=
=2E
I did the following while installing kaffe:
1)./configure --enable-xprofiling --with-staticvm --with-staticlib=20
--with-profiling
2)make
3)make install
When I type:
kaffe -Xxprof Helloworld
=2E..it says -Xxprof command not found...
Can anyone help me with this?Also,it would be great if someone can point =
to me=20
a tracing tool which will help me in tracing method calls and construct a=
=20
kind of call graph?My objective is understanding step-by-step bytecode=20
execution.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
