Description:
If you know what malloc() violations are, you'll be interested in
ElectricFence. ElectricFence is a tool which can be used for C
programming and debugging. It uses the virtual memory hardware of your
system to detect when software overruns malloc() buffer boundaries,
and/or to detect any accesses of memory released by
free(). ElectricFence will then stop the program on the first
instruction that caused a bounds violation and you can use your
favorite debugger to display the offending statement.
This package will install ElectricFence, which you can use if you're
searching for a debugger to find malloc() violations.
