LWN: Comments on "Valgrind memory debugger 1.0.0" http://lwn.net/Articles/6105/ This is a special feed containing comments posted to the individual LWN article titled "Valgrind memory debugger 1.0.0". hourly 2 Use Eiffel http://lwn.net/Articles/6588/rss 2002-08-01T18:53:18+00:00 scripter Was that a troll? If I use Java, Perl, Ruby, Python or shell script, I don't need Valgrind either. So what? <p>Valgrind is an outstanding tool, and very worthy of mention since many projects need a good memory debugger. Use Eiffel http://lwn.net/Articles/6583/rss 2002-08-01T18:24:31+00:00 gorg_H Eiffel is designed to write applications without worry about garbage or pointers, and it's object-oriented. So, if you use Eiffel, you don't need this program.<p>links:<p> smalleiffel.loria.fr (SmallEiffel) -- this is GNU<br> www.eiffel.com (ISE Eiffel) -- propietary, but powerful IDE<br> Try it! http://lwn.net/Articles/6480/rss 2002-08-01T09:17:01+00:00 eru I have used the pre-1.0.0 versions of Valgrind, and found them<br>quite useful and impressively stable for beta software. Seward is clearly<br>one of the rare programmers who puts a very high priority on quality, and Valgrind<br>is a tool that helps others aim for the same. I have tried many other<br>memory testers, both commercial and noncommercial, but Valgrind has<br>some unique capabilities that none of the competition have.<br>If you program in C or C++ on Linux/x86, do yourself and especially<br>your users a favour, and start using Valgrind today!<br>
