What is kOTF For Mac?

kOTF For Mac

kOTF is a free and open-source C++ library that helps you generate execution traces. It's pretty cool because it gives you a lot of insights into what your program is doing, beyond just what a simple profiler would show you.

Why Choose kOTF?

This library takes inspiration from ParaTools' OTF but offers way more flexibility. Plus, it's designed to be thread-safe where needed and has low overhead. This means you can actually use it to generate traces without slowing down your program.

Get More Control

With kOTF, you have more control compared to automatic instrumentation tools. It’s super handy for developers who want detailed tracking without all the fuss. And guess what? There’s even an automatic instrumentation tool in the works!

Types of Data Tracing

kOTF allows you to trace three main types of data:

• Program flow: This includes tracking when your code enters and exits functions.


• Variable updates: You can see how and when your variables change during execution.


• Message passing: It tracks sending and receiving messages between different parts of your application.
