New Profiling Point Wizard: Timed Take Snapshot
See Also
The New Profiling Point wizard enables you to set a new profiling point
that will invoke a profiling action.
In this wizard you specify the type of profiling point that you want to set
according to the profiling action that want to be invoked.
You use this profiling point to take profiling snapshots
or heap dumps at a certain time or after a certain interval.
You open this wizard in the following ways.
- Right-click in a line in your source code and choose Profiling > Insert Profiling Point.
- Click Add Profiling Point in the toolbar of the Profiling Points window.
- Click Edit Profiling Point in the toolbar of the Profiling Points window
when a Timed Take Snapshot profiling point is selected.
In this page of the wizard you specify the following properties.
- Name. Type the name that you want to use to identify
the profiling point.
This name will be used to identify the profiling point in the
Profiling Points window.
- Settings. Set the following options for the snapshot:
- Take. Select the type of snapshot that you want to take.
- Save. Select the location for the saved snapshots.
You can save snapshots to the default directory in your project
or you can specify a location on your local system.
- Reset results after taking snapshot. When selected
the collected profiling results are reset after each snapshot is taken.
- Time. Specify when you want the IDE to take the snapshot.
If you select Take Once, you need to specify a time and
the IDE will take a single snapshot at the specified time.
If you select Take Every, you need to specify the interval between snapshots.
The IDE will take snapshots at the specified interval
while the profiling session is running.
