c - GNU Debugger (GDB) and "help info leaks"? -
i running gdb 7.2 on linux 64 bit machine. works fine want try use gdb me detect memory leaks shown in following article:
http://geocities.ws/murugesan/technical/gdb/memoryleak_gdb.html
there section says:
gdb info leaks command availability check: # gdb -q (gdb) info leaks if find command,then gdb capable debug program memory leaks. else support of gdb find memory leaks not available in gdb version.
when "help info leaks" nothing ;-(
do have specific compiled file? "file myprog", , everything?
btw: how guys find using gdb finding memory leaks?
the title of page is: "memory leak detection on hp-unix platforms".
the "info leaks" added hp-ux extension gdb, , never made fsf release of gdb (which linux distributions use).
on linux, use valgrind.
on solaris, use libumem.
