Probably, but I am more precise than just the line number. I get the
column number as well.
if I did not included the execution count it's because i don't really
know how to include it in the HTML report.

I choose a format similar to the lcov format. lcov is front end to gcov.

Anyway, I'll have to improve the format generated by the
compiler/instrumented code in order to make it possible to see the
compiler coverage without overflowing the hard disk. I already have
plenty of ideas for that.

As I said, I don't need to save the block information including full
path to source code each time a block is executed, I just have to
increment a count for the block and when the executable exit, dump it to
the .cov file. The only problem I have is how to hook to the terminaison
of the program. i can't put it at the end of main() as there are many
calls to exit all over the place. i think I'll just replace exit with a
macro.

And, processing 480MB of coverage data isn't a problem for the perl
script, that is great news.
