gcov code coverage



$vi hey.c
$gcc -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage hey.c
$./a.out
Hey :)
$gcov hey.c
File 'hey.c'
Lines executed:100.00% of 3
hey.c:creating 'hey.c.gcov'

$cat hey.c.gcov

-: 3:{
1: 4:printf(" Hey :) \n");
1: 5:}
$



The ".gcov" files can be examined using a normal editor. The first
column is the number of times that the line is executed. A decimal
number indicates the number of times that the line of code executes, a
'-' means that it is no code is generated for the line, and "#####"
indicates the generated code was not executed at all. To the right of
the first ':' is line number the remainder of the line is the source
code.
