[Valgrind-users] Quick questions about the usage of VG_(HT_construct) and VG_(malloc)

[Dannie S. <dan...@gm...>]

I am creating a dynamic data dependency valgrind tool for class. I
would like make use of the xarray and hashtable available in the
includes. I have successfully used them but I am not sure on a couple
of the details and was hoping that you could help;

1) The VG_(HT_construct) requires a parmeter of HChar*, what is the
purpose of this value? Is it like a unique key? If I need to
dynamically create hashtables what is a good way to assign this value?
I assume that they can't all have the same value.

2) For VG_(malloc), I don't think I will be using the cc parameter, is
it safe just to just use the same cc value everywhere (like "foo")

Thanks,
Dannie
