C語言內存錯誤檢測工具：memwatch
MEMWATCH 由 Johan Lindh 編寫，是一個開放源代碼 C 語言內存錯誤檢測工具。只要在代碼中添加一個頭文件并在 gcc 語句中定義了 MEMWATCH 之后，您就可以跟蹤程序中的內存泄漏和錯誤了。MEMWATCH 支持 ANSI C，它提供結果日志記錄，能檢測雙重釋放（double-free）、錯誤釋放（erroneous free）、沒有釋放的內存（unfreed memory）、溢出和下溢等等。
特性：
- ANSI C
- Logging to file or user function using TRACE() macro
- Fault tolerant, can repair it’s own data structures
- Detects double-frees and erroneous free’s
- Detects unfreed memory
- Detects overflow and underflow to memory buffers
- Can set maximum allowed memory to allocate, to stress-test app
- ASSERT(expr) and VERIFY(expr) macros
- Can detect wild pointer writes
- Support for OS specific address validation to avoid GP’s (segmentation faults)
- Collects allocation statistics on application, module or line level
- Rudimentary support for threads (see FAQ for details)
- Rudimentary support for C++ (disabled by default, use with care!)
