Title: memory detecting tool embeded in Code::Blocks for Windows, create a new plugin?
Post by: ollydbg on August 28, 2024, 04:04:42 am: Hi, we already have a plugin named "Valgrind plugin", see some images here: How to use valgrind in code::blocks? (https://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php?topic=15181.0)

But Valgrind plugin is mainly for Linux. I see a similar tool under Windows, named "heob", see here: heob (https://github.com/ssbssa/heob)

QTCreator has already embeded this tool, see here: Profiling and Memory Checking Tools - Qt Wiki (https://wiki.qt.io/Profiling_and_Memory_Checking_Tools) and Heob | Qt Creator Documentation (https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-heob.html)

So, what I need to do is: copy the code of Valgrind plugin, and modify the code to support heob tool.

Any good ideas? Thanks.

Do you know if somebody has already collected some experiences with using Dr. Memoryhttps://drmemory.org/index.html (https://drmemory.org/index.html) together with Code::Blocks?

Best regards,
Eckard Klotz.

Thanks. I know Dr. Memory is a good tool, I haven't used it recently. Anyone has some experience can show your result here.

When I use the heob, I see it is hard to read its result diagram, see discussion here:
