Dynamic analysis tools information

[vipindeep]

Dear reader,

Are there any widely used dynamic analysis tools which are used for
detecting errors in programming, for example null dereferences,
deadlocks, etc..

Some of the tools which I could know are Daikon, *J, MAc JAVA, Delta
Debuggers. Infact all these tools provide runtime information. Are
there any tools like Purify (in C for memory based errors, array out
of bounds etc).

Can any one give information regarding the runtime analysis tools for
error detection in C++ and JAVA.

Thanks,
Vipin

All these things depend upon which host/target platform and
architecture you are using... So first of all you should tell us,
which ones you use. Addtionally probably a newsgroup apropriate for
this target would probably give better results to this question.
