Reports Produced by SPOT

When you run SPOT, it produces the following directories and files, which it writes to the current directory unless you specified a different directory with the -d option:

spot_runn/
A subdirectory for each run that contains the SPOT report for the run. n is a unique number for each run. You can specify a different subdirectory name with the -o option.
spot_summary.html
A report that lists SPOT runs with the date and time of each run.
spot_diff.html
A report that compares SPOT data from different runs in a tabular format.
spot_diff.source_list.html
A report that lists the compiler used to compile the application, and the source files compiled.
