I recently used MemoryValidator programm, It`s quite cool, http://softwareverify.com/memoryValidator/ You can try their evaluation.. Allows you to see a lot of things on how and when you allocate memory,=20 memory leaks, memory allocations problems and so on.. I wonder why it`s not yet become popular enough, also feels way more lightweight then boundschecker. _____________________ Timur Davidenko.

Subject: [GD-General] memory checking I recently ran into a serious memory bug I just can't track down and it seems it's time to get some sort of memory debugging tool. Ideally it would be available for Win32, PS2 and GameCube and work with CodeWarrior, but just Windows would be acceptable. The only tools I can find so far are BoundsChecker and Purify, but neither looks like it will work with our CodeWarrior setup. I also tried just using the crtdbg funcitons, but getting the MS libs into CodeWarrior is proving problematic. Does anybody know of any commercial product that might be useful? Are there any standalone memory checkers out there? Anybody using BoundsChecker that can comment on whether you must have Visual Studio or not?
