ClangBuildAnalyzer(-ftime-trace)

Clang 9+ -ftime-trace可以很方便地获取单个文件编译最耗时，但当一个工程中有多个文件需要构建时，如何找最耗时的操作就尤为重要，例如：在整个构建过程中那个文件编译最耗时，那个头文件包含最耗时，那个C++模板实例化最耗时，那个文件以及那个函数代码生成最耗时等。ClangBuildAnalyzer应运而生。

1 编译/安装ClangBuildAnalyzer

首先下载ClangBuildAnalyzer：

git clone https://github.com/aras-p/ClangBuildAnalyzer.git
or
git clone https://gitee.com/wangwenchaonj/ClangBuildAnalyzer.git

编译ClangBuildAnalyzer：

cd ClangBuildAnalyzer
make -f projects/make/Makefile

将ClangBuildAnalyzer添加到系统路径：

cd build
cp ClangBuildAnalyzer /usr/local/bin/

root@ubuntu:/home/~# ClangBuildAnalyzer
USAGE: one of
  ClangBuildAnalyzer --start <artifactsdir>
  ClangBuildAnalyzer --stop <artifactsdir> <filename>
  ClangBuildAnalyzer --analyze <filename>

2 待优化工程参数设置

设置clang编译器：

export CC=/usr/local/bin/clang
export CXX=/usr/local/bin/clang++

设置clang编译器-ftime-trace参数：

set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -ftime-trace")
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -ftime-trace")

3 编译

对ClangBuildAnalyzer源码进行编译：

mkdir build
ClangBuildAnalyzer --start ./build
make -f projects/make/Makefile
ClangBuildAnalyzer --stop ./build/ ClangBuildAnalyzer.data
ClangBuildAnalyzer --analyze ClangBuildAnalyzer.data
ls
chmod -R 777 *

增加-ftime-trace(CMakeLists.txt)参数：

set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -ftime-trace")
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -ftime-trace")

rm -rf *
cmake ../

ClangBuildAnalyzer --start ./

make

ClangBuildAnalyzer --stop   ./ ClangBuildAnalyzer-test
ClangBuildAnalyzer --analyze ClangBuildAnalyzer-test
