Missing profiler option (Linux)

Answered

Hi there,

I want to use a profiler in CLion to get some performance statistics about my code. But I noticed that there is no option to run a profiler. I know it should be there, as I have used it a lot while I was coding on a Mac. But on my Linux Laptop I just can't find it.

I followed this tutorial: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/clion/cpu-profiler.html but that did not solve my issues.

Any idea what I'm missing?

Hello!

What CLion version do you use (Help | About CLion)? Is the Perf tool installed on your machine? What OS exactly do you have?

I'm using CLion 2022.1.1 on Fedora 36. Yes, I installed the perf utility.

Do you have the `Run | Profile` in the main menu?

No I don't have this options. Also the profile seetings page in Build, Exec., Deployment -> Dynamic Analysis Tools is missing.

Do you work with a CMake project?

Do you have the "disabled_plugins.txt" file in `~/.config/JetBrains/CLion2022.1`? If yes, please show its content.

Update: it seems to be https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/CPP-29340. As a workaround for now, please enable the Copyright plugin, it should help.

Feel free to comment or upvote the issue in order to get updates. See https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/207241135-How-to-follow-YouTrack-issues-and-receive-notifications if you are not familiar with YouTrack.
