Options for caching

To improve build-time performance, PureCoverage caches its versions of all the libraries and object files used to build the program.

Option

Default

-cache-dir

<purecovhome>/cache

Sets the global cache directory for caching instrumented versions of files.
 

-always-use-cache-dir

no

Forces PureCoverage to write all instrumented versions of files to the global cache directory.
 

-forbidden-directories

system-dependent

You can use this option to specify a list of directories, each separated by a colon, into which files are never written, even if the directories listed are writable. All the subdirectories of forbidden directories are also forbidden. The default values are system-dependent:

/lib:/opt:/usr/lib:/usr/5lib:/usr/ucb/lib:/usr/lang:/usr/local

 

/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/l
