Thanks for the input Kris. What you're saying does make sense. And while I'm not going to get into static analysis, by "the right thing" what I was looking at is a bit more simpler like checking things inline with what a programmer would do using asserts. Anyways, I understand that the problem definition is getting a bit vague, so I'll possibly go dig around more and come back with something specific, if required.
