Is there something Valgrind like tool for FreeBasic for Win?

Post by PeterHu »

Greetings,

Since in FreeBasic one can use pointer for various needs,sometimes may be as heavily as possible,I am wondering whether there is any valgrind-like tool exists to help detecting memory leakage,or what is the right to do to write a safer and more rubust program?

Thanks for the help in advance.

There's Dr Memory. Currently 64-bit support is a bit wonky, but it'll likely improve. You might want to check it out.
