Intel® Advisor Help
A target is an executable file that you examine with Intel Advisor tools.
Intel Advisor supports targets:
Developed to run on Linux* operating systems using the Intel compiler or GNU* gcc compiler development environment.
Developed to run on the Windows* or Linux* operating systems listed in the Release Notes.
That use C/C++, Fortran, or C# code for the portions that will run in parallel.
The target executable must contain source symbol table debug information, so the tool can provide source line correlation and viewing sources. The build requirements are described in the help topic Build Settings for each language.
When using the Intel Advisor GUI, specify project properties for the target in the Project Properties dialog box. You can specify a target executable or a script file as the Application. If you specify a script file for the Dependencies tool, specify the target executable in the Child Application field (see Specifying Project Properties Using the Intel Advisor GUI).
