Hi,
I am having troubles finding memory leaks and array over shoots with valgrind
on android.
I have a binary that intentionally leaks few bytes. When I run the binary in
valgrind environment on an android phone (adb shell), I see valgrind reporting
no errors.
Please help me understand if I am missing any. I compiled valgrind that came
with android release under external directory (git clone
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/valgrind)
My program:
--------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
int i = 0;
char *leak = (char *) malloc(10);
char *noleak = (char *)malloc(20);
free(noleak);
noleak = NULL;
return 0;
}
Name of the executable: sample
Output from valgrind:
