Dear valgrind users I am looking for a way to check the correct use of endianess conversion in a program. I wonder whether valgrind could help with that. I now which data is in network byte order, and all internal variables of the program should be in host byte order. I guess that something like the tracking of initialised/uninitialised bytes could help here. And if so, has this already been done, or would it be difficult to archive? I know that there are other alternatives (static type checking, smart pointers etc), but they don't seem to be really comprehensive. I do already use valgrind for checking my programs, and both the verification of the memory management and the detection of uninitialised values is very helpful. Yours, Thomas |
