| Summary : A debugger which detects memory allocation violations
|
Description :
If you know what malloc() violations are, you\'ll be interested in
ElectricFence. ElectricFence is a tool which can be used for C
programming and debugging. It uses the virtual memory hardware of your
system to detect when software overruns malloc() buffer boundaries,
and/or to detect any accesses of memory released by free().
ElectricFence will then stop the program on the first instruction that
caused a bounds violation and you can use your favorite debugger to
display the offending statement.
