[Valgrind-users] Shared objects

[Jojy V. <Joj...@sy...>]

Hi=20
    I am a Valgrind novice and was trying to track down memory lean in
our application. Now, we have a lot of shared libraries(in fact all our
modules are shared). According to the FAQ, we are required to NOT
unload(dlclose) the loaded modules before exit. Now, we dont close the
loaded module because we dont care since the process is dying anyways.
Given this scenario, should I still expect the memleak information
having lots of unresolved symbols? This is an example of the output from
the "memcheck" module.

    As you can see, there are a lot of "???" which we would like to know
the value of. Is there any other thing I should be doing?
