- Valgrind is a GPL'd tool to help you find memory-management problems
- in your programs. When a program is run under Valgrind's supervision,
- all reads and writes of memory are checked, and calls to
- malloc/new/free/delete are intercepted. As a result, Valgrind can
- detect problems such as
-
- - Use of uninitialised memory
- - Reading/writing memory after it has been free'd
- - Reading/writing off the end of malloc'd blocks
- - Reading/writing inappropriate areas on the stack
- - Memory leaks -- where pointers to malloc'd blocks are lost forever
- - Passing of uninitialised and/or unaddressible memory to system calls
- - Mismatched use of malloc/new/new [] vs free/delete/delete []
- - Some abuses of the POSIX Pthreads API
