Critical Issue
Description
If you create a software project in the Nios II SBT command line flow, generate profiling data to gmon.out in the Nios II command shell, and then import the project to the IDE, you cannot use the Profiling perspective to view the profiling data. When you attempt to view gmon.out, the IDE displays the following error message:
nios2-elf-gprof: ../: not in a.out format.
Resolution
Run nios2-elf-gprof from the Nios II command
shell to generate a profiler report.
