Ask for any freeware memory leakage tools

| Hi, All
Purify, BoundsChecker and Parasoft Insure++ are all such tools.
But all of them are expansive to my company. So I want a freeware tool
or get other methods to detect the memory leak as a tester.
Please give me some advise. Thanks!
Best Wishes

Write your own memory management libraries and implement the bounds &
leaks checking of your own.
For plain old vanilla C, this would be malloc(), realloc(), and free().
Done this in the eighties of the last century, was a one w s job
including analysis and reporting interface.

| Try Valgring (http://www.valgrind.org/):
"Valgrind is an award-winning suite of tools for debugging and profiling
Linux programs. With the tools that come with Valgrind, you can
automatically detect many memory management and threading bugs, avoiding
hours of frustrating bug-hunting, making your programs more stable. You can
also perform detailed profiling, to speed up and reduce memory use of your
programs."
