Start Profiling using a Profiler Project

(Professional only)

When profiling is started using a profiler project, the settings in the project will be used for the new profiling session, and the session file will be associated with the project (if the session is saved).

There are several ways to profile a process using a project:

•      Set a project as active using the Set Project as Active command in the projects explorer. This will enable the Start using Profiler Project command in the Profiler menu.

•      Right click on a project in the projects explorer and select Start using Profiler Project.

•      Start using the standard Profile Application, Profile ASP.NET, Profile Server or Attach to Process. If a profiler project is loaded, you will get the opportunity to associate the session with a project.

•      If you are running the profiler under Visual Studio 2005 and a profiler project is set as active, you can right click a project in the Solution explorer and select Start using Profiler Project as well.
