Feature Only in Professional and Enterprise Editions Profiling is supported only in Visual C++ Professional and Enterprise Editions. For more information, see Visual C++ Editions.
The Function Coverage option in the Profile dialog box profiles the current project, recording whether a function was called.
Function coverage profiling is useful for determining which sections of your code are not being executed. The profiler lists all profiled functions, with an asterisk (*) marking those that were executed. The profiling overhead for function coverage matches the overhead for function counting. Here is a sample function coverage report:
