After that AnalyzeTool should be build to all used platforms and -both build types (udeb/urel) in that environment. - -AnalyzeTool is found from sf\pdt\dynaanactrlandcptr\memana\analyzetoolclient -folder. Building should be done in group folder. - -Note: Before building check symbian_version.hrh file that it defines correct -version for your environment. - -=============================================================================== - -System Requirements: -==================== -- Windows XP -- Trace connection for real time data gathering to PC - -Additional Requirements: -- Carbide.c++ v2.x - -=============================================================================== - -Compatibility Issues: -===================== -- Not compatible with versions older than 1.5.0 of AnalyzeTool -- Kernel code analysis not supported - -=============================================================================== - -Known Issues: -============= -- When using monitored internal data gathering mode (-mi) and hooked application contains huge -amounts of allocations, AnalyzeTool storageserver might run out of memory to store the data. This -message "Symbian error code -4" is seen in the data file. Solution is to -use external / monitored external data gathering mode. No fix is planned yeat. - -- Switch allocator. AnalyzeTool change the application memory allocator to AnalyzeTool own memory -allocator and using the User::SwitchAllocator function can lead to situation where the tested -application does not work properly. No fix is planned yeat. - -- AnalyzeTool hooked QT applications becomes too slow to run. Improved in release 1.7.4 where you -can use small size call stack(s) and new logging mode (external -e). - -- Stif test case with AnalyzeTool can inform wrong memory leak alert. No fix is planned yeat. - -- AnalyzeTool overwrites functions TInt User::ProcessCritical(TCritical aCritical) and TInt -User::SetProcessCritical(TCritical aCritical), but this works only when the function is called from -hooked exe application. So if setting critical is done from DLL (even if it's hooked with -AnalyzeTool) the overwriting does not work and the process stays set critical during the testing. No -fix is planned yeat. - -- If hooked application is closed by calling User::Exit() from DLL instead of .exe application -AnalyzeTool reports "abnormal process end" and can't report proper memory leaks. No fix is planned -yeat. - -=============================================================================== -Version History: -================ - -Version in 1.7.4 - 4th November 2009 ---------------------------------- --New: [AT-560] -
