The Profiler
About the Profiler.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

With the use of a profiler, you are able to see the approximate times that
CA-Clipper Function and Procedures take to run.

The profiler only works on those .PRGs that have been compiled with the
debugging info switch /b.

All information stored by the profiler can be displayed within the profiler
window - this can be accessed with <Shift><Alt><V>, to open the profiler
window and, if it is not already the current window, <Alt><9>

The profiler is very memory intensive and very slow. It is recommended that
you toggle the Fast Run option to on when you run the profiler and simply
Run the program, running as many of your functions and procedures as
possible.

In this way, the Profiler can take speed readings of all of your functions
and procedures for the profiler window.

Please Note: You should only use the profiler, once you have finished
tinkering with the source code. Should you change the source
code whilst profiling, then the results gained may be
uncertain.

If you change source code, then you should start profiling
afresh.
