How to use profiler in .NET 7.1

[Maansi Gupta]

Platform - Windows 2000 Professional , VC .NET 7.1

Hello,

I have recently ported my source code from Visual Studio 6.0 to .NET 7.1

Previously with Visual Studio 6.0 I was using the profiler in the following
way
1) Build the project with link setting- Enable Profiling as checked.
2) I had created a custom batch file for profiling my application and was
using the
Build-> Profile Menu option to start the profiling.

I am unable to find the option to run the profiler for testing the
performance of my application.

Will someone please let me know the link setting to be specified to
enable profiling and the menu option to be selected to enable profiling.
Any pointers or help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
Maansi Sanghi

There isn't an MS supplied profiler in VC7(.1). I believe MS recommend
using the free Numega profiler:

Hi Dave

Thank you very much for the response. Right now I am going
to download the devpartner profiler just as you suggested.

But I am very much surprised as to why MS would remove a feature.
I would have expected a profiler support in .NET version and also a
recommendation
to use the free profiler.

This has been discussed many times. See for example
