Diagnostic reports

The compiler listings , XML reports, and HTML reports provide important information to help you develop and debug your applications more efficiently.

For more information about the applicable compiler options and the listing itself, see Compiler messages and listings.

You can also obtain diagnostic information from the compiler in XML or HTML format. The XML and HTML reports provide information about optimizations that the compiler performed or could not perform. You can use this information to reduce programming effort when tuning applications, especially high-performance applications. The report is defined by an XML schema and is easily consumable by tools that you can create to read and analyze the results. For detailed information about this report and how to use it, see Using reports to diagnose optimization opportunities.
