OVERVIEW
GlowCode is a Code Profiling, Memory Leak
Detection and Function Call Tracing tool
for software programmers using Microsoft
Visual C++, VisualBasic (and other
compilers that generate .PDB debug
information).
NEW GlowCode reViewer retrieves
saved Report and Profile results, and
provides enhanced navigational and
analysis features for rapid isolation of
performance bottlenecks."

Unrivaled Speed
Innovative just-in-time instrumentation connects the
tools when you need them. Runtime overhead is less than
one percent, enabling you to use GlowCode unobtrusively
in any build of your product, even while your debugger
is active.
Flexible
Use with window programs, console programs, NT services,
Win32 DLL's and OLE components.
Convenient
Three easy ways to use GlowCode: (1) use it to launch
your application, (2) attach GlowCode to a running
program, or (3) link GlowCode directly into your
application. No source code or build change or
post-build step required.
Compatible
Works with Microsoft Visual C++, VisualBasic and other
compilers that generate .PDB debug information. If .PDB
debug information is not available, uses exported symbol
names typically contained in .DLL executables.
Intuitive user interface is a diagnostic dashboard
into your program's execution. You may resize and tear
off tool viewers as needed.
Real-Time
See profiling, trace, and code coverage results as
you use your program. Display of memory and resource
allocations let you see over-consumption problems as
they happen. Single-click leak detector recursively
searches memory for unreferenced heap blocks. Share
off-line, too. The all-new GlowCode reViewer
captures your real-time profiles for later study,
distribution to your colleagues, and boasts enhanced
navigational and analysis features for rapid isolation
of performance bottlenecks.
Powerful
GlowCode diagnoses even large CAD applications with ease
Frugal
GlowCode uses fewer CPU cycles and screen pixels, and
less memory and disk space than any competing product.
Download size of installation file is about 1 megabyte.
Respectful
The GlowCode installation is self-contained in one
subdirectory and makes no changes to any system files or
the MS Visual Studio installation.
Streamlined and Cost-Effective
No need for you or your development team to juggle lots
of products sold as a "suite."
GlowCode's
unique, just-in-time instrumentation puts all the
diagnostic tools you need at your fingertips, but never
in the way. Unlike other diagnostic tools, this means:
1. Instantly and selectively turn on and off profiling
and coverage instrumentation at a module, function or
line resolution while running your application.
2. Insert the instrumentation hooks you want into your
code at the rate of over 100,000 hooks a second.
3. No source code or build changes, or tedious,
post-build pass.
4. No bothersome, post-build instrumentation step.
5. No overhead when instrumentation is not being used;
far less overhead than other tools when instrumentation
is on.
6. No conflict with your normal debugger.
New in version
5.1:
GlowCode
5.1 introduces GlowCode reViewer, which offers advanced
analysis and navigational features that enable you to
isolate performance bottlenecks faster than ever.
GlowCode
reViewer provides the save/retrieve capabilities that
many of you have requested. Now you can analyse your
GlowCode Profile and Report results off-line, as well as
real-time, and easily share the data with your
colleagues.
We've
extensively enhanced GlowCode online help, improved
GlowCode speed, usablility, command line options, and
more. See the installation Readme file for details.
