Creates groups based on names
C/C++: TAU_GET_PROFILE_GROUP(char *groupname);
TAU_GET_PROFILE_GROUP allows the user to dynamically create groups based on strings, rather than use predefined, statically assigned groups such as TAU_USER1, TAU_USER2 etc. This allows names to be associated in creating unique groups that are more meaningful, using names of files or directories for instance.
C/C++ :
#define PARTICLES TAU_GET_PROFILE_GROUP("PARTICLES")
void foo() {
TAU_PROFILE("foo()", " ", PARTICLES);
}
void bar() {
TAU_PROFILE("bar()", " ", PARTICLES);
}
