Instrumentation Log Data

 

It can be very useful to know why your code hasn't been instrumented. For example, a file or part of a file you were expecting to receive coverage information may have been excluded by one or more of the class, file, DLL or or other filters in the Global Settings dialog.

 

To log details of why dlls, source files, classes, methods and functions are not instrumented, first switch on the instrumentation logging settings.

 

Once enabled, and a session has started, you can view a list of the files that have not been instrumented via the Tools menu.

The dialog shows:

 

•log order

 

•the name of the item that hasn't been instrumented

•Microsoft DLL ignored
 

•CRT DLL ignored
 

•Software Verify's own DLL ignored
