    VS2010 Professional version does deliver VS Profiler along with it, Whereas it delivered with VS 2010Premium and VS2010 Ultimate which is costly affair.

    I have tired VS2008 Stand Alone Profiler but it does not support intrumenting 64 bit binaries with /coverage option which is my reqirement.

    Please suggest how go about this issue or suggest some other profiler?

    Hi Akshay,

    The profiler and code coverage share a lot of the same technology, but they are separate features.  We've had 64-bit profiling for a few releases now, but 64-bit code coverage support was specifically added in VS2010 and is only available in the Premium and Ultimate editions.  For now, these two editions are the only way you can do 64-bit code coverage.

    Regards,
    Chris
