HeapAgent

New in HeapAgent 7

In June 2003 HeapAgent 7 for Win32 was released. This version of HeapAgent is designed for compatibility with the Microsoft .NET dev environment. Specifically, it supports unmanaged C/C++ projects. HeapAgent 7 also maintains compatibility with earlier versions of Visual C++, as well as supporting Borland C++ and Borland C++ Builder.

New in HeapAgent 6

  • Callstacks in browsers are now visible: data browsers row are now multi-line, with one callstack entry per line. Browser rows are now sized according to the number of callers for that row when "show callstack" is checked. Browser rows are also now resizable with the mouse since they are multi-line.
  • HeapAgent browser data can be exported to a tab-delimited text file which can then be opened in another program (typically, a spreadsheet). This feature is accessed thru the new 'Export' option in the File menu.
  • Data can be copied from the HeapAgent browsers and pasted into another application. This feature is accessed thru the 'Copy'/'Paste' options in the Edit menu
  • The stack checking feature has been removed, since it is no longer supported (incompatible with VC6)
  • Patching of GlobalAlloc/LocalAlloc/HeapAlloc is now off by default
  • The default suppressions list has been updated for current CRT & MFC, including release CRT/MFC (default suppressionsp reviously only included leakage in debug CRT/MFC)
