RE:Is there any tool like purify(memory leak check tool) for LINUX

[Andrew Agno <agno@AI.SRI.COM>]

Nothing to equal purify (or so I've heard), but there are some things
that help:

mpatrol
Electric fence (efence)
A garbage collector: http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Hans_Boehm/gc/

I've had very good success by using a combination of the latter
two--efence is quite a memory hog, but works, and gc works very well
for memory leak detection for C programs--never tried with C++.

I believe mpatrol can be used for both corruption and leak errors.

Andrew.
