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 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
cmake --build build --parallel

Note

We need debug information to feed Valgrind and some optimizations might also be necessary to have less noisy output, hence the -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo option.

Running

There are runnable targets, for example: run-helgrind-example, to run, use the following command:

cmake --build build --target run-helgrind-example

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