Does RapiTime require any modification of the target source code?

Generally, no manual modifications are required to the source code; however, RapiTime automatically adds instrumentation points ("Ipoints") to the code so that it can do tracing and measurements. This modification is hidden and automatic.

Occasionally it is useful to add directives for RapiTime into the source code, these annotations take the form of comments or pragmas and therefore do not affect the behaviour of the code. Most directives do not require modification of the source code since they can be applied in an external configuration file.
