13.3 Gprof won't work unless it can find COFF executable

Q: When I run Gprof, it complains that it cannot find my program. But I've just run it!!

Q: I run Gprof on my program, and it says: "bad format".

A: Gprof from DJGPP v2.0 needs the original COFF file the linker produced. If you delete it, or feed Gprof with the .exe file instead, it will be most unhappy. The way to produce the COFF output is explained in section dealing with GDB, above. Alternatively, upgrade to DJGPP v2.01, where all Binutils programs know about .exe executables.
