hi,
yes, if the function definition is part of a separate
library, by default the function name doesnt find
entry in the profile function list.
Code Composer Studio's profiler uses software
breakpoints to determine inclusive and exclusive
counts. Software breakpoints are set at entry and exit
points of functions and on program discontinuities
(e.g. branches, function calls) which lie within the
scope of the active profile session.
so when profiling a function, the entry point is the
address corresponding to the '_function'.
In the case under consideration, it will be same in
both cases.
regards,
Dileepan.
