Back to search · Project homepage

Description

Valgrind is an instrumentation framework for building dynamic analysis tools. There are Valgrind tools that can automatically detect many memory management and threading bugs, and profile your programs in detail. You can also use Valgrind to build new tools. This OpenBSD port is still very preliminary and has minimal functionality (memcheck). All problems should be reported to the "valgrind-openbsd" page:
