Importing probes into your project

You can import a probe that has been exported by another Probekit user into your project.

To import a probe into your project:

  1. In the Package Explorer, right-click any open project and select Import. (An open project is necessary only to enable importing. No probe files will actually be imported into the project.)
  2. In the Import dialog box, select Probe and then click Next.
  3. In the From file field, type the name of the probekit file that you want to import, or click Browse to locate the file.
  4. Select whether registry information that already exists for the probe can be overwritten without warning. The id and version properties of the probe are used to determine whether pre-existing information is about to be overwritten.
  5. Click Finish. The imported probe is added to the Probekit registry, which makes it available for use in profiling configurations.
