Hi,
I'm hoping to get some feedback from users regarding heap analysis
tools available (apart from purify) for leak tracking. I'm working with
a large, already deployed codebase that needs fixing. the problem is
that the compiler in question (borland c++ on windows) doesn't support
purify which is my first choice.
I'd like to know what the best alternatives are. I've heard of
boundschecker, smartheap and such like. Before I try any of them I'd
like to know what products are preferred by users/developers. Any
feedback would be most appreciated.
thanks and have a nice day.

I have been using boundschecker several times, mostly for finding buffer
overflows and dangling pointers and often with good results. The memory leak
functionality seems to be ok, but I have hardly used that part of
Boundschecker.

if code doesn't use placement new, you can try
void * operator new ( size_t s, const char * file, int line ) {
void * ptr = ::operator new(s);
cout << file << ":" << line << ": new " << ptr << endl;
return ptr;
}
void * operator new [] ( size_t s, const char * file, int line ) {
void * ptr = ::operator new [] (s);
cout << file << ":" << line << ": new [] " << ptr << endl;
return ptr;
}
void operator delete ( void * ptr, const char * file, int line ) {
cout << file << ":" << line << ": delete " << ptr << endl;
::operator delete (ptr);
}
void operator delete [] ( void * ptr, const char * file, int line ) {
cout << file << ":" << line << ": delete " << ptr << endl;
::operator delete [] (ptr);
}
#define NEW new
#define new NEW (__FILE__,__LIN E__)
#define DELETE delete
#define delete(p) operator DELETE ((p),__FILE__,_ _LINE__)

I have been using STL for a long time now, without any problems.
Recently we generated a purification report on our software using
Rational Purify, and we found some memory leaks. My colleague claims
that some of the memory leaks are due to the fact that "STL is wrought
with memory leaks". Of course I disagree. I think that there are no
"inherent leaks" with STL, but if used improperly, leaks will occur.

hi,
I'm looking for an open source memory pool. It's for use on an
embedded system, if that makes any difference. Something with garbage
collection/defragmentation would be nice. It should have the ability
to allocate different size chunks of memory not just a single size. It
should error check for double free, etc. And it should be usable by a
mixture of C and C++ subsystems.
If I get that, I'm happy. Thank you very much.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
