> Yeah, we might end up doing the detection per writer. That should only be needed for `ProfileIsPseudoProbe` . For now we don't need to set `ProfileIsCS` because the contexts all have brackets and they can just be treated as regular function profiles by the existing writers. 
I see, I guess you meant `ProfileIsCS` is false by default, so it will use the default `Name` variable like the regular function and the `Name` variable actually has the brackets.

Just fixed following this idea by setting the `Name`.
```
 FProfile.setName(FContext.getNameWithContext(true));
```
