Question

I want to profile my Perl code by using Devel::DProf.

when I am running the profiler like

perl5.8 -d:DProf abc.pl # default version of Perl in my PC (Solaris) is 5.003

then it produces the tmon.out file in the current directory, but when I run

dprofpp

then it is not undertanding the command and giving error like command not found.

I know Devel::DProf – a DEPRECATED Perl code profiler, and should use Devel::NYTProf but just want to know why it is giving such an error, may be I am missing something.

How can I solve this?

Answer 1

Find out where you installed dprofpp and ensure that the directory is in your PATH, or call it with the full path.
