You cant use both fastmm and memcheck. They are both replacement memory managers. If you accidentally are referencing both uints in a project you will end up with all
sorts of trouble.

FastMM will display a dialog box on errors if this is set that shows the callstack. Also. By determining the types of objects leak, you should be able to determine location.
well, i normally can ;)

Nevermind about the FastMM log file.  I found I had to add the defines
inside the FastMM4.pas file for it to work.

I still can't get MemCheck to work without an access violation, however,
so any ideas on that welcome.

Further to using MemCheck for the first time today, I can't get it to
work (with or without FastMM).

function ltgmCallerIsNewAnsiString: boolean;
 //Tells if the guy who called GetMem is NewAnsiString
asm
 cmp ebp, 0 //this can happen when there are no stack frames
 je @@no
  {$IFNDEF DELPHI71_OR_LATER}
  mov eax, [EBP + 12]
  {$ELSE}
  mov eax, [EBP + 16]   <<< Access Violation
  {$ENDIF}
 sub eax, 17

Any ideas?

Ross.

With all this talk about FastMM, I've changed over to using it now in
D7.  In the first app I tried it on, it reports a dozen small memory
leaks, whereas MemCheck says there are none.

The problem is I can't work out how to get any details on the leaks.
I've added defines for FullDebugMode, LogErrorsToFile, and
LogMemoryLeakDetailToFile, but I can't find a file anywhere.
