Subroutine Dependency Report

This section of the profile report presents graphically the 
caller/callee relationships between the subroutines that have been 
executed during the DSP program simulation. For each caller/callee 
pair, the report contains an arrow leading from the caller to the 
callee. 

Example C-9

 depicts part of the Subroutine Dependency report, in 

ASCII format. Subroutines that have not been invoked during the 
program simulation will appear in this report as disconnected 
nodes.
