smRet = profiler_stop(ssFile, rsMinTime, bDontOpenDialog)

Return Value

smRet is a string matrix with three columns. The fist column contains the function name, the second columns contains the number of calls and the third column the run times for the function calls in seconds. In case of an error the return value is an empty string "".
