[Valgrind-users] Ho to track memory allocation/deallocation using Valgrind ?

[Ivan I. <bar...@gm...>]

Hi,

I wonder whether it is possible to rack the memory allocation/deallocation
in my application and all linked libraries by using Valgrind ? What do I
mean by that: I'd like to turn on some log that would write a memory
allocation in the following form: address, source file, source line of where
the allocation occurred (using C++ "new" operator, malloc, etc.). The same
is for deallocation (when using C++ "delete" operator, free, etc.).

Just in case: the purpose why I need that is that I'd like to quickly find
the source line where the allocation (and possible deallocation if this is a
dangling pointer) of memory for some problematic object occurred. The point
is when there are a lot of unfamiliar code and you quickly need to find a
problem (the point where the object was created could really help), that
would be really good thing.

So is that (or at least anything close to what I need) possible using
Valgrind ?

Thanks
