The coverage code runs a constructor at the default initialization priority. Since your code is running at a higher priority, it runs before coverage has been initialized. Ideally you could call __gcov_init (info) at the start of your constructor. The problem is that __gcov_init takes an argument, a pointer to a struct gcov_info, and you should really pass the same pointer as the default constructor will pass. But there is no way for your code to get that value. I can't think of anything that would work without changing and rebuilding the compiler and the gcov support code. Ian
