Intel® Advisor Help

Window: Annotation Report

To access this window, in the Result tab, click the Annotation Report button. Alternatively, if you are using the Advisor Workflow tab, click the button below 2. Annotate Sources or 5. Add Parallel Framework.

The Annotation Report window lists all annotations found during source scanning or running the Suitability and Dependencies tools. It lists the annotation type, source location, and annotations label in a table-like grid format, where each annotation appears on a separate row. Intel® Advisor updates the listed annotations when changes occur to the specified source directories. For example, when you save a source file with a code editor.
