    OK, I have an error in my application and somehow seem to corrupt the stack. I have done a search on Google for a market overview. And what really really bothers me is that it seems that all vendors stopped developing their tools years ago. No new functions, no update, no nothing :mad: I found: - Purify - Insure++ - BoundsChecker - and some others. Question: Can you recommend me an actively supported and developed tool for checking all kind of programming errors like memory leaks, cross-threading issues, pointer issues, stack issues and so on? -- Affordable Windows-based CMS for only 99 €: try www.zeta-producer.com for free!

      At work we use purify, and it works quite good and is a pretty fast solution for finding memory related problems. I tried boundschecker and its also pretty good, it integrate several error checking capabilities like the thing you mentioned, and more (deadlock detection, call validation, object tracking, .NET analysis ...)

        Are you saying that BoundsChecker v7.1 is out-of-date?

          I do have 7.02 (or something like that) from 2002 and therefore I imply that 7.1 is out of date, too. Additionaly the sales man told me to contact me when new releases are available but I never heard from him again :-( -- Affordable Windows-based CMS for only 99 €: try www.zeta-producer.com for free!

                Just downloaded 7.2 evaluation. Now I remember again, why I left the version in my desk, 2 years ago: because it crashes all the time when running my application under BoundsChecker :(:(:( I really really wonder why the hell they sell such horrible crappy software. And I also wonder why I found no other person on Google experiencing the same problems (Access Violations in BC7.exe). Am I that stupid to use this application? :confused: -- Affordable Windows-based CMS for only 99 €: try www.zeta-producer.com for free!

                  Do you have any detailed information? Like e.g. release date or supported platforms/IDEs (like VS.NET 2005 e.g.) or new features? -- Affordable Windows-based CMS for only 99 €: try www.zeta-producer.com for free!
