Setting Up the lowfruit Sample Code

Before You Begin

See the following for information about obtaining the code and setting up your environment.

• Getting the Sample Code for the Tutorials

• Setting Up Your Environment for the Tutorials

1. Copy the contents of the lowfruit directory to your own private working area with the following command:

   % cp -r SolarisStudioSampleApplications/PerformanceAnalyzer/lowfruit mydirectory

   where mydirectory is the working directory you are using.

2. Change to that working directory.

   % cd mydirectory/lowfruit

3. Build the target executable.

   % make clobber (needed only if you ran make in the directory before, but safe in any case)
   
   % make

   After you run make the directory contains the target program to be used in the tutorial, an executable named lowfruit.

   The next section shows how to use Performance Analyzer to collect data from the lowfruit program and create an experiment.
