Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2001-10-11 Severity: wishlist * Package name : mpatrol Version : 1.4.7 Upstream Author : Graeme S. Roy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.cbmamiga.demon.co.uk/mpatrol * License : LGP Description : A powerful library for debugging memory allocations
The mpatrol library is a powerful debugging tool that attempts to diagnose run-time errors that are caused by the wrong use of dynamically allocated memory. . Along with providing a comprehensive and configurable log of all dynamic memory operations that occurred during the lifetime of a program, the mpatrol library performs extensive checking to detect any misuse of dynamically allocated memory. . All logging and tracing output from the mpatrol library is sent to a separate log file in order to keep its diagnostics separate from any that the program being tested might generate. A wide variety of library settings can also be changed at run-time via an environment variable, thus removing the need to recompile or relink in order to change the library's behaviour. . All of this functionality can be integrated into existing code through the inclusion of a single header file at compile-time. -- System Information Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux chinon 2.4.10-xfs #1 mer sep 26 11:26:34 CEST 2001 i686 Locale: LANG=fr, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR
