## Arguments

filename

  Is the name of the profiling summary file.

OFF | The profiling summary files have the file name pgopti.*.

## Description

This option specifies an alternate file name for the profiling summary files. The file name can be used with the code-coverage tool (codecov) or the test prioritization tool (tselect).

The filename is used as the base name for the set of files created by different profiling passes.

If you specify this option with option /Qcov-gen, the .spi and .spl files will be named filename.spi and filename.spl instead of pgopti.spi and pgopti.spl.

Option /Qcov-file is equivalent to option /Qprof-file. If you specify both options, the last option specified on the command line takes precedence.
