Description

If you know what malloc() violations are, you'll be interested in
ElectricFence. ElectricFence is a tool which can be used for
C programming and debugging. It uses the virtual memory
hardware of your system to detect when software overruns
malloc() buffer boundaries, and/or to detect any accesses of
memory released by free(). ElectricFence will then stop
the program on the first instruction that caused a bounds
violation and you can use your favorite debugger to
display the offending statement.
This package will install ElectricFence, which you can
use if you're searching for a debugger to find
malloc() violations.
