Collecting Dynamic Call information on your application tells you: o Your application's call tree structure o What routines call other routines o Which routines make the most calls Unlike the static call stree structure provided by SCA, the dynamic call tree produced by PCA shows the runtime characteristics of the relationships among your application's routines during a given test run. To collect Dynamic Call information on your application: o Compile and link your application with the PCA Collector o Run your application. This causes the PCA Collector to take control of your application. PCA diplays the Collector main window on your screen. o From the File pull-down menu, create a data file into which the Collector places performance data. o Choose the Dynamic Call Information query category. o Click on the specific query related to the information you are interested in collecting. o Click on Collect in the Collector main window. For information on displaying the results of the Dynamic Call Information queries, refer to: o The hardcopy manual, Guide to DIGITAL Performance and Coverage Analyzer for OpenVMS Systems o The online help for the PCA Analyzer.
