Profiling problems

[abbapatris]

I tried his example...word for word and it doesn't produce a gmon.out file. the last line of the make output says....
Warning: consider linking with '-static' as system libraries with profiling support are only provided in archive format.

Currently Qt is built dynamically because the project I am on can't be built statically.

This only means you won't get profiling information from libraries such as libc which is good for you. Run the resulting application and you should get a gmon.out file.

Nope I only get the gmon.out file if I do -static when linking. I have tried running the application several times.

I think i found the issue...the server uses gcrt0.o rather then gcrt1.o and from what I have found from searching is that gcrt1.o is what I should be using for C++.

Can anyone confirm this for me?? I know this isn't a Qt issue

Eeeem... what server?

my company's server. Just the system we login to to build it. I have done some tests and have solved the issue, thanks for the help
