memory leak detecting in C++ with/without Visual Leak Detector

Question

I want to detect memory leaks of my C++ program in Windows. I read the documentation also on MSDN about mermoy leak detection and I also started using Visua

Answer 1

Rational Purify is available as a for-money plugin for VC++, and is a very good leak (and other trouble) detector. I used to use it a lot on Solaris, and it was very easy to use and clear. I've also heard good things from other people about the version for use with Visual Studio, but I've never actually tried that.

FWIW, I suspect that Purify was the inspiration for Valgrind, which has already been mentioned.
