How to use pprof

[Roger Pau Monné]

Hello,

I'm trying to use pprof to profile a program, but I can not get it
working, I follow the instructions at:
http://golang.org/pkg/http/pprof/ and I add the line:

import _ "http/pprof"

To my program, then recompile and run it. When I use gopprof
http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/heap I get the following error:

Read http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/symbol
Use of uninitialized value $line in substitution (s///) at
/Users/royger/go/bin/gopprof line 2742.
http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/symbol doesn't exist

And when using 6prof http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/heap

prof: can't open http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/heap: No such file
or directory

Also, I've took a look at netstat and there's nothing listening at
port 6060, so I guess I'm missing something.

Thanks for the help, Roger.

Nevermind, just found it. Could someone add to the docs that you need
to import the http package and launch the http server? Something like:

err := http.ListenAndServe(":6060", nil)
if err != nil {
panic("ListenAndServe: " + err.String())
}
