AQTime displays this message to inform you that it cannot start profiling for one of the following reasons:
-
The modules displayed in the Setup panel are no longer available at their previous location. This is possible if the modules were renamed or moved to a different location.
-
There is no debug information for the modules displayed in the Setup panel. Debug information is crucial information about source lines, location and length of routines in binary code, etc. The unmanaged modules which you selected for profiling must be compiled with debug information. Otherwise, AQTime will not be able to profile them. See Profiling Mixed-Code .NET Applications.
For managed modules, the debug info is not as necessary as it is for unmanaged modules. To get information on routines in managed executables, AQTime analyzes metadata added to each managed module by the compiler. However, debug information is needed to profile routines at line level as well as for displaying results in the Editor panel. For more information, see How AQTime Profilers Use Metadata and Debug Information. - The format of debug information of the modules displayed in the Setup panel is not supported.
