>VC++ got ASAN support recently as well. I know this may not be the right place to discuss about ASAN vs. valgrind, but valgrind does more than ASAN does, for instance, checking the arguments of system calls. If you look at the other tools included, like hellgrind or cachegrind, you'll see what I mean. Don't see it only as a memory checker, valgrind (or rather the family of tools behind that name) has grown out of that. HTH, Uli PS: no, I'm not a valgrind developer, just a fan ;-) Ulrich Teichert Sr. Software Engineer, Technology Development Center VSS Luminator Technology Group P: +49 (4321) 539895-13 ulrich.teich...@luminator.com https://www.luminator.com LTG Rastatt GmbH | Office Neumünster Oderstrasse 47 | DE - 24539 Neumünster Geschäftsführer: Franz Foth, Hans-Joachim Reich | Sitz der Gesellschaft: D-76437 Rastatt, Amtsgericht: Mannheim, HRB 521501 USt.-IdNr: DE144752608, Steuer-Nr: 39487/30502 _______________________________________________ live-devel mailing list live-devel@lists.live555.com http://lists.live555.com/mailman/listinfo/live-devel
