Can DLLs also be profiled?

Post by sushma »

Hello,

I have just started using Yourkit .NET profiler.
Can only the .exe be profiled or is there any option to profile even the DLLs .

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Sushma

Hello Sushma

You can profile any application running in .NET framework.

What kind of application do you have? How do you launch it?

Best regards,
Anton

Hi Anton,

I am profiling the Business Explorer (BEx) application, which launces the BEX Analyser.
In the yourkit I specify the concerned .exe which launches the BEx Analyser.
Is there any option to specify the .dll file and profile the application.

Thanks,
Sushma.

Hello Sushma

Please try recently released version 3.0 of the profiler:
http://www.yourkit.com/dotnet/

It allows to profile any .NET application, disregarding the way you launch it (i.e. no special launching is needed - just launch the way you do it and the profiler will pick it up).

Best regards,
Anton
