fprof under OS X

[Sean Hinde]

Ah, yes. The culprit is the driver makefile in the runtime tools app.
 
This error occurs when the shared lib is linked with ld rather than Apples
cc.
 
The normal fix is to change ld to cc..
 
I'll try to have a bash at fixing it but I've upgraded my OS and need to
re-configure again... It will take some time.

Erlang (BEAM) emulator version 5.2 [source] [shared heap] 


Eshell V5.2 (abort with ^G) 

1> misc:fprof_test(). 

dyld: /usr/local/stow/erlang-R9B/lib/erlang/erts-5.2/bin/beam Undefined
symbols: 

dyld_stub_binding_helper 

Trace/BPT trap 



Where fprof_test/0 looks like this: 


fprof_test() -> 


fprof:trace(start), 

chi_square_test(fun() -> random:uniform(10) end, 1000, 10), 

fprof:trace(stop), 

fprof:profile(), 

fprof:analyse(). 


cheers,

What problema are you having? I don't think there are any drivers involved
in profiling so it should be as cross platform as Erlang itself..
