Comment on Valgrind is much more than a leak checking tool

Comments

Back in the days I still did windows software, VS6 reigned supreme, and BoundChecker and Purify did more or less what Valgrind did (valgrind was already very helpful; purify was available on unixes and windows, and was more capable than valgrind at the time)

What's the situation in Windows land these days with respect to these tools?

We use Dr. Memory on windows, it's not strictly equivalent but it can also track hard to find problems... http://www.drmemory.org
