PRB: PRF1621 Error from Profiler for Windows NT (100774)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Source Profiler 1.0
This article was previously published under Q100774
The information in this article is included in the documentation starting
with Visual C++ 5.0. Look there for future revisions.
SYMPTOMS
An attempt to profile an application using the line count and line cover
options fails and the Profiler generates the following message:
PREP: fatal error PRF1621: no debugging information
in file 'filename'
CAUSE
This error occurs when the application being profiled contains debugging
information in COFF format.
RESOLUTION
Profiler requires debugging information in CodeView format. Either change
the debug options to /DEBUGTYPE:cv to generate CodeView format or to
/DEBUGTYPE:both to generate both COFF and CodeView format debugging
information.
MORE INFORMATION
This error occurs only when you specify the line count or line coverage
options in Profiler. This functionality sets breakpoints in the code using
debugging information in CodeView format. This should not be an issue for
the function count or function coverage options.
