Valgrind

Some examples of Valgrind and Valgrind tools:

• Memcheck
• Cachegrind
• Callgrind
• KCachegrind
• Helgrind
• DRD
• Massif

Building

Building examples with CMake (from repository root directory):

cmake -S . -B <build_dir> -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
cmake --build <build_dir>

NOTE: We want a debug information to feed Valgrind so -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo. Sometimes some optimizations are needed as well.

Running

There are runnable targets, for example: run-helgrind-example, to run call:

cmake --build <build_dir> --target run-helgrind-example

Check CMakeLists.txt in each directory to find runnable examples.
