Better than purify - "valgrind" by Julian Seward is probably the most
impressive product in this area I've ever seen. However, you'll need to
run on a Linux x86 machine but I'm sure you can dig one up from
somewhere in a crunch ...

Hi, Does anyone have experience with using Purify with db2 CLI application? We're using Purify to diagnose some problem in our multi-thread CLI application, and we're getting lots of the "UMR: Uninitialized memory read" error reported by Purify. I wrote a very short test CLI program that simply calls SQLAllocHandle, SQLConnect, SQLDisconnect and SQLDisconnect; and Purify still reports the same error. The following is one of them:

However, my code is a rather simple single-source C program, and I didn't write a Makefile for it. I'm wondering if anybody can tell me which commands are to be entered at the Unix prompt to use purify. And, I don't know if...
