How To Find Memory Leak in ARX File

[Anonymous]

Dear Friends

Can Some One Tell How To Find Memory Leak in ARX File.

[Anonymous]

Hello,

Try this:

_CrtDumpMemoryLeaks();

Take a look at VC++ documentation for further information...

Regards,
Fernando.

Again this function is defined only in the debug C-runtime library. A
correctly set up ARX DLL must link with the release C-runtime library where
this function is not available. Am I missing something here?

If you have a few hundred dollars to blow, then buy BoundsChecker
from Numega. Otherwise, view the debug tab in the IDE after
Autocad quits. Scroll up a ways looking for memory leak messages.
Memory leaks will be reported as the line that allocated the memory.
From there your on your own figuring out why the memory wasn't
deallocated.

Correct me if I am wrong but you cannot find memory leaks using MFC's leak
detection since you are linked with the release version of MFC. Maybe I have
been missing something for 2 years now (that's possible!).

Make sure you have this at the top of your implementation files:

#ifdef _DEBUG
#define new DEBUG_NEW
#undef THIS_FILE
static char THIS_FILE[] = __FILE__;
#endif

Your right. Had memory fade there for a minute. I've
been using Bounds Checker for a couple years with
good success.

Manish Bhatia,

I used Purify but it doesn't support arx files.

Were you able to find memory leaks in arx files? Please share your experience. Didn't get much info. on the net.

--Thanks,
