Hi all, I have found some post on the cygwin ML reporting that valgrind could be built on cygwin. I just want to: - Make sure it's real - If so could someone point me out where are the patch(s) to apply to make it compile Thanks a lot mathieu |

Hum, could someone else confirm on this. I thought valgrind could be=20 ported on *BSD too. Finally what is the main problem -if there is only one- that prevent=20 valgrind to be used under cygwin ? Thanks a lot mathieu |

Valgrind does lots of low-level interaction with the operating system. I don't know how cygwin works, but I'd be surprised if Valgrind worked with it, for this reason. I've heard about some *BSD port attempts, that they can run small programs but don't handle anything difficult like signals. I don't know if there's anything public available, though. N |

It's almost certainly doable, but there'd be a few details to sort out. Well, since Valgrind is *all* in the details, it would probably be a lot of work... J |
