    What are some of the best known tools available to detect memory leaks. I know of a couple like "Rational Purify" and Insure++. Any relative comparison figuring out the best preferably the ones which work better in terms of saving time and focus more on multi threaded environments. This is for a comperehensive project that is having 100's of vcproj files.

        1. Compuware BoundsChecker[^] is another good option. 2) CRT's built in Memory Leak Detection[^] support also can be used. But its not as user friendly as third party tools, but its free! Regards, Jijo.

            sure, if you have $1400 you don't need.

              Wow! I can remember when you could get BC for the same price as a large pizza. That was before they started bundling it as a suite, however.

                there is one from MS "Application Verifier". From this tool we can check for heaps,memory,locks,handles many more. You just need to configure your exe to application verifier and run the exe. Application Verifier will give you the logs.It is free. BoundChecker from Compuware is also good one.But it is not free.
