Memwatch

Memwatch is a fault tolerant (can repair its own data structures) memory leak and corruption detection tool. You add a header file to your souce code files, and compile with MEMWATCH defined or not. It can detect double-frees and erroneous frees, unfreed memory, overflow and underflow to memory buffers, and wild pointer writes. It collects allocation statistics on the application, module, or line level.
