I am new user of TPTP.
now, I am able to profile my java application, and able to
analyze the data in Porfiling and Logging perspective.
but how to put log data into file automatically during profiling,
then analyze it later on.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Qijia:

You can save your data to a report. Select your project, right click the
mouse and select report from the menu. There is also a report button in
the statistics views.

Best Regards
Cindy

Thanks, Cindy.
What I want is to put profiling data into log file automatically during
my application running.

In your profile launch configuration, select the Profile tab -> select the
Destination sub tab -> check 'Send profiling data to a file' option ->
specify a file with .trcxml extension -> profile

You can later import the file by right clicking and selecting import ->
profiling data.

To view the content of the file: open it in winzip and extract the XML
file inside it.

Hi, Navid Mehregani:

It works very well as you said. Thank you very much!

However, I'd like to go further.

I follow the instructions in the Guide of "Getting started with Agent
Controller" modified <Agent client="DYNAMIC" to <Agent client="HEADLESS",
now starting my application, the profiling data automatically goes into
the log file.
it's nice. but only one problem is that the profiling data only has memory
statistics, no execution statistics.

it seems Agent Controller uses the "default profiling Set" which only
includes Memory Analysis,

So my question is "how can I tell Agent Controler to use the customized
Profiling Set which includes Memory and Execution Analysis without using
Eclipse?".

thanks in advance,
Qijia

Hi,

If you want to just profile to a file using RAC, you shouldn't use
'applicationControlled'. Use 'standalone' mode instead.
'applicationControlled' allows the user to control the profiler
programmatically and I don't think that's your intention.

Now about the profiling set issue.... The RAC actually collects
information about everything when you use either applicationControlled or
standalone mode. The problem is with the way you import the file. When
importing the file, make sure you select 'Show full data' in the profiling
file wizard in the 'Range' tab.

Hi, Navid Mehregani:

Thanks for info.
now I am able to profiling the application just using RAC.
when I am profiling the testing program, everything seems OK.
but when profiling my really application, my application become
extremely slow. without profiling, it takes about 30 seconds to
complete initial phase, however with profiling, it takes 10 minutes to
finish my application initial phase. the trace log file is bigger than 2GB
after 5 minutes.

I run my application standlone mode without filter file,
RAservice takes the most of my CPU time.
Can we tune RAC performance?
properly setting up filter file will be help?
I will try to use filter file to see if it will be help.
Any suggestions are really appreciated.

Thanks a lot!

Yes, if you don't set your filters it will collect way too much data and
it will take too long to execute. You have to set your filters properly
to have the profiler collect data only on the classes you're intersted in.
What I typically do is exclude everything and include only the classes
I'm interested in. E.g:

com.mypackage* * INCLUDE
* * EXCLUDE

I'll make an attachment of a file with the default filter set. You might
find it useful.

using filter file, it's much better now.
but if I exclude everything except my packages,
the profiling log file haa no execution statistics.

However, when using the filter.txt you attached,
the log file has execution statistics data.

So I cae play around the filter now.
Thank you very much!
