OS X doesn't support the older DTRACE_PROBE style macros, only
the newer (and much safer!) typechecked generated header files.
The DTRACE_PROBE macros are still being exposed in sdt.h. I tried
using them without running "dtrace -G", and the app built
successfully except none of the probes were available. Is there any
chance that this approach can be made to work, if not now, in the
future?
Robert,
The sdt.h DTRACE_PROBE macros are vestigial, they'll go away any
minute now.
I can't think of a way to make them work without the generated -h
files off the top of
my head, but it is software, and all things are possible :-).
That said, the earliest possible date we could fix this is a ways
off, and the
DTRACE_PROBE macros were obsoleted for good reason. I think it would be
possible to do a fairly simple mechanical translation of DTRACE_PROBE
style
to the new generated header style, and that might get you going quicker.
