Dialog Box: Create a Result Snapshot

To access this dialog box:

This dialog box lets you create a snapshot of a result and save its data in a read-only result. You can visually compare saved read-only results against the current active result or other saved read-only results.

Use This

To Do This

Result name field

Specify the name of the Intel Advisor read-only result. Provide a unique name, perhaps by adding an identifying suffix within the result name.

Cache sources check box

Make the source code (used by the snapshot) available in the resulting snapshot.

Cache binaries check box

Make binaries (used by the snapshot) available in the resulting snapshot.

Pack into archive check box

Create a one-file archive with all snapshot data inside. Enables the Result path text box for specifying the path of your choice.

Result path text box

Is disabled by default. Enable the result path text box with the Pack into archive check box. Use this text box to specify the path to the resulting snapshot archive. Use the Browse... button to specify the address.

OK button

After specifying the parameters, click OK to create the read-only result. With a large result, you may need to wait as the read-only result gets created.

Cancel button

Cancel the snapshot creation.

To view the resulting snapshot, go to File > Open > Result... (CTRL + O).

Read-only results are identified by a different icon in the Intel Advisor GUI project navigator. The words (read-only) appear after the name of a read-only result in the result tab.

Although you can only collect data to update the active project, you can update your sources regardless of what type of result (or project) you have open.
