The QNX System Information perspective displays realtime statistics about a target machine and the processes running on it. This perspective contains many views that provide diverse and useful information about memory, CPU, and resource usage, and about process and thread interaction on the target.
You can switch to this perspective at any time to examine the current state of your target and its applications. The statistics come from the general-purpose process-level allocator, so there's minimal overhead and you don't have to build an application with instrumentation code to see its runtime metrics. This design makes System Information the best starting point for detecting memory and performance issues and for understanding interprocess and interthread communication.
The perspective also lets you transfer files between the host and target machines and interact with targets and processes in other ways.
Unlike other integrated tools, System Information doesn't require any user action to enable and use. Also, it doesn't have an export or import feature for storing and sharing results outside of the IDE. The idea is that you monitor activity on the target and based on what you see, pick a more specialized tool to further investigate some aspect of the system or an application's behavior.
When you click a target or process in the Target Navigator, the other views are refreshed. Multi-select is supported, by holding the Ctrl and/or Shift keys when selecting processes, similar to the functionality of Windows Explorer. However, only one other view, Process Information, can show data for multiple processes; the other views show data only for the selected target or process that's listed first (highest).
