Hi All,

Is it possible to extend TPTP's profiler for different language (say
Perl)? If so, what whould you recommend me for reading
(I didn't find any helpful document describing how to extend TPTP's
profiler), or just give me some kind of glue what parts should be
extended, and what should stay as is.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Michael,
Although there is no specific information on extending the Java
Profiler, you can write an agent that generates the same trace XML fragments
to populate the TPTP Trace model. The XML fragments need to follow the TPTP
Event Specification for Java profiling (see
http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/platform/documents/resources/pro filingspec/XML4Profiling.htm
and
http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/platform/documents/resources/pro filingspec/trace.dtd.html).
Your agent would write the fragments to a Logging Agent that the workbench
would monitor to populate the TPTP Trace model. See the
http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/documents/eclipseWorld2005/ EclipseWorld_2005_Tutorial_2_Eugene_Chan_Paul_Slauenwhite.pd f
presentation and its source code
( http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/documents/eclipseWorld2005/ EclipseWorld_20
05_Tutorial_2_Source_Code_Eugene_Chan_Paul_Slauenwhite.zip) for an example
agent.

Hi Paul,

Thank you for your answer!

As I understood the structure of the language must match Java's structures (threads, exceptions, classes, etc...),
otherwise it's impossible to create such an Agent?

Hi Michael,
The TPTP data model has been expanded in TPTP V4.1.0 to support
application performance data from non-Java complied applications, such as
C/C++. For more information, see:

and analyzing application performance >> Profiling an application >>
