Orbit, the Open Runtime Binary Instrumentation Tool, is a standalone C/C++ profiler for Windows. Its main purpose is to help developers visualize the execution flow of a complex application.

The key differentiator with many existing tools is that no alteration to the target process is necessary. Orbit does not require you to change a single line of code. It doesn't require you to recompile or even relaunch the application you want to debug. Everything is done seamlessly, right when you need it. It requires zero integration time and zero iteration time.

Orbit analyses the debug information present in the pdb files and performs runtime injection into the target process to open up a communication channel between the two applications. It can then dynamically instrument functions that the user selects easily from the intuitive UI. It also contains a robust sampling profiler and context switch tracker based on ETW (Event Tracing for Windows). Instrumentation data is presented in the form of a flame chart onto which sampling data is overlaid.

Building Please have a look at the first three sections of our development documentation. It describes how building Orbit works and what Compiler, Platforms, and Tools are supported and needed.

Workflow

1. Select a process in the list of currently running processes in the "Home" tab
2. The list of loaded modules will appear on the bottom of the "Home" tab. If a .pdb file was found for a module, it will be highlighted in blue
3. Right click on the module(s) for which you want to load debug information and select "Load Pdb". Wait a little bit for Orbit to parse the pdb. Once its done, The "Functions", "Types" and "Globals" tabs will get populated.
4. Select functions you wish to profile in the "Functions" tab by right clicking and choosing "Hook"
5. In the "Capture" tab, start profiling by pressing 'X'. To stop profiling, press 'X' again. You can zoom time using the scroll wheel. To zoom vertically, hold 'CTRL' while scrolling. You can also right-click and drag to zoom time. Press A to Zoom the last 2 seconds of capture.
6. When you select a function in the "Capture" view, the full callstack will be available in the "Callstack" tab. You can select functions to be profiled in the callstack tab as well. Also, if code is available on your machine, it will be displayed in the "Code" tab.
7. You can select sections of the per-thread sampling event section to get a sampling report of your selection.

Sessions Once you have loaded the debug information for your modules and have chosen functions of interest, you can save your profiling session so that you won't have to do this manually again. To save a session, go to "File"->"Save Session"
