Valgrind

Valgrind is super useful for debugging native programs. Valgrind can be used to uncover memory leaks, concurrency issues and a lot more.

How valgrind works

• The design and implementation of Valgrind

Usage

• Checking for memory leaks of a program (hello),

  valgrind --leak-check=full ./hello

  If you see a message like, All heap blocks were freed -- no leaks are possible, then your program is probably leak free!
