New version of KCachegrind available...
by Josef Weidendorfer on Wednesday 04/Sep/2002, @17:35
Hi,

I just uploaded new versions KCachegrind 0.1b and
valgrind-1.0.1 patch 0.1b.

Look at the News section of the webpage for changes.
And please give it a try.

I should have all known bugs fixed :-)

Happy profiling,
Josef

Problem is that only Valgrind 1.0.2 is available now which your patch won't apply to :)

    Yeah, the patch for 1.0.1 fails on 1.0.2...
    But one would hope for a synch between valgrinds cachegrind
    and kcachegrind so that the patch will not be necessary.

    Wrong. Only the 1.0.2 =link= is available now. But the 1.0.1 archive is still
    there: http://developer.kde.org/~sewardj/valgrind-1.0.1.tar.bz2.

      Uhm, I downloaded the 1.0.2, it IS (or was) there, I tried to apply the patch
      for 1.0.1 in the 1.0.2 directory and it fails. The patch does apply to
      the 1.0.1 directory without complaining.

        What are you trying to say?! That the 1.0.1-patch doesn't apply to the 1.0.2 binary? Surprise! As I mentioned above, you can still download the 1.0.1 binary, too which the 1.0.1 applies quite well (surprise again!).

          Well, the first thing I wanted to say is that 1.0.2 actually was there,
          which your post seemed to imply that it was not.

          I am not surprised... I am just stating facts, it's just that
          *cachegrind* 1.0.1 is not working too well (which is why
          Julian Seward released 1.0.2).
          Also just so you know; patches can apply to newer versions,
          it just depends on how the new version was changed...
          much like a cvs merge can work without manual intervention,
          a patch can work on a later version depending on what was modified
          in the new version. Yes, it is not as "safe" as a tested patch
          against a certain version but if you are not depending on it in a
          production environment, and what you got does not work, why not try it?
          And after I tried it I might tell others who are like of mind
          so that they would know it would not work right of the bat...
          Then you can decide if you want to do the patch manually in
          the new code or just wait for someone to release a new patch...
          For me cachegrind 1.0.1 gets an assert almost all of the time
          but not with 1.0.2 (yes, unpatched).

            Oh well. My posting was the answer to Perra, who said "Problem is that
            only Valgrind 1.0.2 is available now which your patch won't apply to."
            I said that the link to 1.0.1 may have been removed, but the binary was
            still there and posted the link. So there would be no problem to get
            a working, patched cachegrind with a matching kcachegrind, even though
            it wasn't the very last version. Then you =repeated= that the 1.0.1 patch
            wouldn't apply to 1.0.2, which was already stated before and not really
            surprising. Yes, my answer was a bit harsh, sorry. But it was easily
            topped by two replies, presumably by the same child using different names
            and with really bad manners. He should wash his mouth with soap. ;-)

              ... but meanwhile there's a 1.0.2 patch anyway. Thank you, Josef! :-)

              Ok, trying to clarify (never been that good doing that lol)
              When I read your statement "Only the 1.0.2 =link= is available now"
              I thought that you had tried to access the 1.0.2 version during a transition,
              ie the link to the 1.0.1 file was removed but the tar file was/is still there
              and a new link had been added to the 1.0.2 tar file but the tar file it pointed
              to was not uploaded yet (or temporarily removed).
              So when I posted again the information I thought I provided was that
              you can download it now + which files the patch failed for.
              Also 1.0.1 cachegrind has never really worked for me.

              I will go try the new patch now though!

          Aaaaand.... as an example of patching sometimes working for closely related versions:
          the patches V 0.2a and 0.1e both for valgrind 1.0.2,
          should be used for 1.0.3.
          quote from kcachegrind site:
          "Update: Both Valgrind patches work for 1.0.3, too (There is one reject because of the wrong version number, which can be safely ignored)."

          (Yes, I have tested this and it works)
