NAME
     lcovrc - lcov configuration file

DESCRIPTION
     The lcovrc file contains configuration information for the lcov code cover-
     age tool (see lcov(1)).

     The  system-wide  configuration  file is located at /etc/lcovrc.  To change
     settings for a single user, place a customized copy of this file  at  loca-
     tion  ~/.lcovrc.  Where available, command-line options override configura-
     tion file settings.

     Lines in a configuration file can either be:

	  * empty lines or lines consisting  only  of  white  space  characters.
	    These lines are ignored.

	  * comment  lines which start with a hash sign ('#'). These are treated
	    like empty lines and will be ignored.

	  * statements in the form 'key = value'.  A list  of  valid  statements
	    and their description can be found in section 'OPTIONS' below.

     Example configuration:

OPTIONS
     genhtml_css_file = filename

	    Specify  an external style sheet file. Use this option to modify the
	    appearance of the HTML output as generated by genhtml.  During  out-
	    put generation, a copy of this file will be placed in the output di-
	    rectory.

	    This  option  corresponds  to  the --css-file command line option of
	    genhtml.

	    By default, a standard CSS file is generated.

     genhtml_hi_limit  = hi_limit
     genhtml_med_limit = med_limit

	    Specify coverage rate limits for classifying file entries. Use  this
	    option  to modify the coverage rates (in percent) for line, function
	    and branch coverage at which a result is classified as high,  medium
	    or low coverage. This classification affects the color of the corre-
	    sponding entries on the overview pages of the HTML output:

	    High:   hi_limit  <= rate <= 100	    default color: green
	    Medium: med_limit <= rate < hi_limit    default color: orange
	    Low:    0	      <= rate < med_limit   default color: red

	    Defaults are 90 and 75 percent.

     genhtml_line_field_width = number_of_characters

	    Specify  the  width  (in  characters) of the source code view column
	    containing line coverage information.

	    Default is 12.

     genhtml_branch_field_width = number_of_characters

	    Specify the width (in characters) of the  source  code  view  column
	    containing branch coverage information.

	    Default is 16.

     genhtml_overview_width = pixel_size

	    Specify the width (in pixel) of the overview image created when gen-
	    erating HTML output using the --frames option of genhtml.

	    Default is 80.

     genhtml_nav_resolution = lines

	    Specify  the  resolution of overview navigation when generating HTML
	    output using the --frames option of genhtml.  This number  specifies
	    the maximum difference in lines between the position a user selected
	    from  the  overview  and  the  position  the  source  code window is
	    scrolled to.

	    Default is 4.

     genhtml_nav_offset = lines

	    Specify the overview navigation line offset as applied when generat-
	    ing HTML output using the --frames option of genhtml.

	    Clicking a line in the overview image should show  the  source  code
	    view  at  a position a bit further up, so that the requested line is
	    not the first line in the window.  This number specifies  that  off-
	    set.

	    Default is 10.

     genhtml_keep_descriptions = 0|1

	    If non-zero, keep unused test descriptions when generating HTML out-
	    put using genhtml.

	    This  option  corresponds  to the --keep-descriptions option of gen-
	    html.

	    Default is 0.

     genhtml_no_prefix = 0|1

	    If non-zero, do not try to find and remove a common prefix from  di-
	    rectory names.

	    This option corresponds to the --no-prefix option of genhtml.

	    Default is 0.

     genhtml_no_source = 0|1

	    If	non-zero,  do not create a source code view when generating HTML
	    output using genhtml.

	    This option corresponds to the --no-source option of genhtml.

	    Default is 0.

     genhtml_num_spaces = num

	    Specify the number of spaces to use as replacement for  tab  charac-
	    ters in the HTML source code view as generated by genhtml.

	    This option corresponds to the --num-spaces option of genthml.

	    Default is 8.

     genhtml_highlight = 0|1

	    If non-zero, highlight lines with converted-only data in HTML output
	    as generated by genhtml.

	    This option corresponds to the --highlight option of genhtml.

	    Default is 0.

     genhtml_legend = 0|1

	    If non-zero, include a legend explaining the meaning of color coding
	    in the HTML output as generated by genhtml.

	    This option corresponds to the --legend option of genhtml.

	    Default is 0.

     genhtml_html_prolog = filename

	    If	set, include the contents of the specified file at the beginning
	    of HTML output.

	    This option corresponds to the --html-prolog option of genhtml.

	    Default is to use no extra prolog.

     genhtml_html_epilog = filename

	    If set, include the contents of the specified file	at  the  end  of
	    HTML output.

	    This option corresponds to the --html-epilog option of genhtml.

	    Default is to use no extra epilog.

     genhtml_html_extension = extension

	    If set, use the specified string as filename extension for generated
	    HTML files.

	    This option corresponds to the --html-extension option of genhtml.

	    Default extension is "html".

     genhtml_html_gzip = 0|1

	    If set, compress all html files using gzip.

	    This option corresponds to the --html-gzip option of genhtml.

	    Default extension is 0.

     genhtml_sort = 0|1

	    If	non-zero,  create  overview  pages sorted by coverage rates when
	    generating HTML output using genhtml.

	    This option can be set to 0 by using the --no-sort	option	of  gen-
	    html.

	    Default is 1.

     genhtml_function_coverage = 0|1

	    If	non-zero,  include  function  coverage data when generating HTML
	    output using genhtml.

	    This option can be set to 0 by using the --no-function-coverage  op-
	    tion of genhtml.

	    Default is 1.

     genhtml_branch_coverage = 0|1

	    If	non-zero, include branch coverage data when generating HTML out-
	    put using genhtml.

	    This option can be set to 0 by using the --no-branch-coverage option
	    of genhtml.

	    Default is 1.

     genhtml_charset = charset

	    Specify the character set of all generated HTML pages.

	    Use this option if the source code contains characters which are not
	    part of the default character set. Note that this option is  ignored
	    when  a  custom HTML prolog is specified (see also genhtml_html_pro-
	    log).

	    Default is UTF-8.

     genhtml_demangle_cpp = 0|1

	    If non-zero, demangle C++ function names in function overviews.

	    Set this option to one if you want to convert C++ internal	function
	    names  to  human  readable	format	for display on the HTML function
	    overview page.  This option requires that the c++filt  tool  is  in-
	    stalled (see c++filt(1) ).

	    This option corresponds to the --demangle-cpp command line option of
	    genhtml.

	    Default is 0.

     genhtml_demangle_cpp_tool = path_to_c++filt

	    Specify  the  location of the demangle tool (see c++filt(1)) used to
	    convert C++ internal function names to  human  readable  format  for
	    display on the HTML function overview page.

	    Default is 'c++filt'.

     genhtml_demangle_cpp_params = parameters

	    Specify extra parameters to be passed to the demangling tool

	    Use  this  option if your environment requires additional parameters
	    such as --no-strip-underscore for correctly demangling C++	internal
	    function names. See also c++filt(1)).

	    Default is "".

     genhtml_desc_html = 0|1

	    If non-zero, test case descriptions may contain HTML markup.

	    Set this option to one if you want to embed HTML markup (for example
	    to	include links) in test case descriptions. When set to zero, HTML
	    markup characters will be escaped to show up as plain  text  on  the
	    test case description page.

	    Default is 0.

     genhtml_precision = 1|2|3|4

	    Specify  how  many digits after the decimal-point should be used for
	    displaying coverage rates.

	    Default is 1.

     genhtml_missed = 0|1

	    If non-zero, the count of missed lines, functions,	or  branches  is
	    shown as negative numbers in overview pages.

	    Default is 0.

     geninfo_gcov_tool = path_to_gcov

	    Specify the location of the gcov tool (see gcov(1)) which is used to
	    generate coverage information from data files.

	    Default is 'gcov'.

     geninfo_adjust_testname = 0|1

	    If non-zero,  adjust test names to include operating system informa-
	    tion when capturing coverage data.

	    Default is 0.

     geninfo_checksum = 0|1

	    If	non-zero, generate source code checksums when capturing coverage
	    data.  Checksums are useful to prevent merging  coverage  data  from
	    incompatible  source code versions but checksum generation increases
	    the size of coverage files and  the  time  used  to  generate  those
	    files.

	    This  option corresponds to the --checksum and --no-checksum command
	    line option of geninfo.

	    Default is 0.

     geninfo_compat_libtool = 0|1

	    If non-zero, enable libtool compatibility mode. When libtool compat-
	    ibility mode is enabled, lcov will assume that the source  code  re-
	    lating  to	a  .da	file located in a directory named ".libs" can be
	    found in its parent directory.

	    This  option  corresponds  to  the	--compat-libtool  and  --no-com-
	    pat-libtool command line option of geninfo.

	    Default is 1.

     geninfo_external = 0|1

	    If non-zero, capture coverage data for external source files.

	    External  source files are files which are not located in one of the
	    directories (including sub-directories) specified by the --directory
	    or --base-directory options of lcov/geninfo.

	    Default is 1.

     geninfo_gcov_all_blocks = 0|1

	    If non-zero, call the gcov tool with option --all-blocks.

	    Using --all-blocks will produce more detailed branch coverage infor-
	    mation for each line. Set this option to zero if you do not need de-
	    tailed branch coverage information to speed up the process	of  cap-
	    turing  code  coverage  or	to work around a bug in some versions of
	    gcov which will cause it  to  endlessly  loop  when  analysing  some
	    files.

	    Default is 1.

     geninfo_compat = mode=value[,mode=value,...]

	    Specify  that  geninfo should enable one or more compatibility modes
	    when capturing coverage data.

	    This option corresponds to the --compat command line option of  gen-
	    info.

	    Default is 'libtool=on, hammer=auto, split_crc=auto'.

     geninfo_adjust_src_path = pattern => replacement
     geninfo_adjust_src_path = pattern

	    Adjust source paths when capturing coverage data.

	    Use  this option in situations where geninfo cannot find the correct
	    path to source code files of a project. By providing  a  pattern  in
	    Perl  regular  expression format (see perlre(1)) and an optional re-
	    placement string, you can instruct geninfo to remove or change parts
	    of the incorrect source path.

	    Example:

	    1. When geninfo reports that it cannot find source file

		/path/to/src/.libs/file.c

	    while the file is actually located in

		/path/to/src/file.c

	    use the following parameter:

		geninfo_adjust_src_path = /.libs

	    This will remove all "/.libs" strings from the path.

	    2. When geninfo reports that it cannot find source file

		/tmp/build/file.c

	    while the file is actually located in

		/usr/src/file.c

	    use the following parameter:

		geninfo_adjust_src_path = /tmp/build => /usr/src

	    This will change all "/tmp/build" strings in the path to "/usr/src".

     geninfo_auto_base = 0|1

	    If non-zero, apply a heuristic to determine the base directory  when
	    collecting coverage data.

	    Use this option when using geninfo on projects built with libtool or
	    similar build environments that work with multiple base directories,
	    i.e. environments, where the current working directory when invoking
	    the  compiler  ist	not  the same directory in which the source code
	    file is located, and in addition, is different between files of  the
	    same project.

	    Default is 1.

     geninfo_intermediate = 0|1|auto

	    Specify whether to use gcov intermediate format

	    Use  this  option to control whether geninfo should use the gcov in-
	    termediate format while collecting coverage data.  The  use  of  the
	    gcov  intermediate	format should increase processing speed. It also
	    provides branch coverage data when using the --initial command  line
	    option.

	    Valid  values are 0 for off, 1 for on, and "auto" to let geninfo au-
	    tomatically use immediate format when supported by gcov.

	    Default is "auto".

     geninfo_no_exception_branch = 0|1

	    Specify whether to exclude exception branches from branch coverage.

	    Default is 0.

     lcov_gcov_dir = path_to_kernel_coverage_data

	    Specify the path to the directory where kernel coverage data can  be
	    found or leave undefined for auto-detection.

	    Default is auto-detection.

     lcov_tmp_dir = temp

	    Specify the location of a directory used for temporary files.

	    Default is '/tmp'.

     lcov_list_full_path = 0|1

	    If	non-zero, print the full path to source code files during a list
	    operation.

	    This option corresponds to the --list-full-path option of lcov.

	    Default is 0.

     lcov_list_max_width = width

	    Specify the maximum width for list output.	This  value  is  ignored
	    when lcov_list_full_path is non-zero.

	    Default is 80.

     lcov_list_truncate_max  = percentage

	    Specify  the maximum percentage of file names which may be truncated
	    when choosing a directory prefix in list output. This value  is  ig-
	    nored when lcov_list_full_path is non-zero.

	    Default is 20.

     lcov_function_coverage = 0|1

	    Specify whether lcov should handle function coverage data.

	    Setting  this option to 0 can reduce memory and CPU time consumption
	    when lcov is collecting and processing coverage data, as well as re-
	    duce the size of the resulting data files. Note  that  setting  gen-
	    html_function_coverage  will  override  this option for HTML genera-
	    tion.

	    Default is 1.

     lcov_branch_coverage = 0|1

	    Specify whether lcov should handle branch coverage data.

	    Setting this option to 0 can reduce memory and CPU time  consumption
	    when lcov is collecting and processing coverage data, as well as re-
	    duce  the  size  of the resulting data files. Note that setting gen-
	    html_branch_coverage will override this option for HTML generation.

	    Default is 0.

     lcov_excl_line = expression

	    Specify the regular expression of lines to exclude.

	    Default is 'LCOV_EXCL_LINE'.

     lcov_excl_br_line = expression

	    Specify the regular expression of lines to exclude from branch  cov-
	    erage.

	    Default is 'LCOV_EXCL_BR_LINE'.

     lcov_excl_exception_br_line = expression

	    Specify  the  regular  expression of lines to exclude from exception
	    branch coverage.

	    Default is 'LCOV_EXCL_EXCEPTION_BR_LINE'.
