How to use Valgrind remotely ?
-
Hello everyone,
I was looking for a free profiler for my Qt code under Windows.
I am used to the MatLab profiler where you can see the time spent on each line of code, which is very handy. (ex : http://i.imgur.com/W1fwuPJ.png )
I tried Luke Stackwalker and VerySleepy, but none of them helped me find the bottlenecks.So now I am trying to use Valgrind remotely, but the Qt help is rather succinct, hence I am looking for your help !
So far I have installed Ubuntu in a virtual machine
( "http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch01.html" )
and created a ssh connection
( http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_center/article/rackspace-cloud-essentials-connecting-to-linux-from-windows-by-using-putty )
but I have no clue about what to do next.The remote analysis prompt for the executable ( path to valgrind I guess ? )
arguments ( I thought Qt was handling it, so I am confused )
and working directory ( profiling output directory I suppose )
and in the next panel the network interface ( tried putty's interface and virtual machine's one )
but then I receive the message “valgrind cannot start: no private key”.Any help is appreciated !
