gcov plugin on windows [message #847414]

Hello,
I'm using Helios on Win7/64 an GCov 0.4.1.201003 together with CodeSourcery toolchain for a embedded ARM platform (STM32). I'm dumping the gcda files via serial RS232 interface.
Selecting a gcno/gcda file and showing the coverage for a single c/cpp-file works perfect. Showing the coverage for the whole binary file (by selecting the elf-file) only shows the empty gcov-tab with program runs = 0 but the correct program file.

Updating to the Linux Tools V0.6 results in an exception when showing the coverage of a single file (s.below).
My question is now, what have I to do to get the complete coverage, is it a problem of the elf-file or Windows paths ? How is the link between the elf-file and the gcda/gcno file spread over several directories? Can I do some test on the console by direct invoking gcov?

Hi,

Gcov plugins depends on binutils.

It should work with cygwin binutils, as long as they are present in PATH.
If you have cross-compiled binutils for ARM available on your host, it's possible to use them instead... but requires some engineering Smile

some remarks...
I've got now a running combination, only after a update to Indigo SR2 and gcov 0.6
If you use CodeSourcery toolchain you to not need cygwin with binutils because they are already in the compiler directory - but with the "wrong name".
You just have to copy/link the required binutils and rename them e.g arm-none-eabi-addr2line.exe to addr2line.exe.
gcov depends also one "strings" not only on "addr2line, c++filt and nm" as mentioned in the
Wiki.
