Thanks in advance.

HI,
Try Rational Purify.
According to me hat is one of the best tools available.
You can try a evaluation version if u need one urgently

Hi ,

It seems Rational Purify will do static analysis, is there any tool which can do the job during run time?

not sure of their site but there is a tool called leaktracer (google would be a good plan here ) which does a fairly good job.
Off the top of my head, I couldn't explain exactly how to use it, but i think you basically include a library they provide and then select when to stop and start (it writes the results to a file, I think, but you can print the contents of the file before you terminate, if need be)

Try with valgrind.
Available only in Linux, but it's a fantastic tool (free, and spots a lot of errors).

Try BoundsChecker. It works at run time.
